I have had two pretty crap electric guitars before, these were semi-acoustic things I bought at the flea market - but the first time I had some money in my pocket I went and bought my Strat, in 1987. It was love at first touch so to say. I wanted to buy another semi acoustic guitar (they do look cool), but somehow i wasn't feeling it. So I asked if I could try out the Strat that was hanging from the wall, that was it! It took one touch only!
Which brings me to why I am posting this - I saw this interview with Jeff Beck, and....yes! There is not much in common between one of the greatest guitar players in the world and me, the greatest guitar player in my house - but it seems we got the same love for our Strats:
