Fender Strat Questions

[i5hawn]

Solo Buttons? Every play video from E3 was watched and I didn't see anyone using the new solo neck buttons? Were they just not ready yet or did the user not realize it?

Customization? Will the same basic painting plastics techniques apply? They look somewhat glossy and while its amazing I'd like to paint a second one. Anyone have any concepts for customization? I was thinking of doing a sunburst.

I was wondering why no one used the solo buttons, I guess they just didn't want to use them. I think they were ready, I wouldn't see why they wouldn't be. I wish they had used the buttons because I really wanted to see them in action.

The solo buttons are for the super fast shredding, like Yngwie Malmstean or Dragonforce. I know you already know this, but they said you don't have to strum when using the solo buttens, it's all hammer-ons and pull-offs, so the notes need to be really close. So close they could become one big note.

As for the customization, I was thinking of spray painting green marble on the body, with my full name going up towords the body in fancy-pants font. Like that old-english kind. Then again, it might not fit.
