    I don't know if it's the tough losses that hit the guitar community so rapidly this year, but even though its been a while since he returned, it still makes me extremely happy to see Norm back in good health, enjoying himself around the shop. Hope you all have a happy and healthy 2023!

      Couldn't agree more, his spirit just resonates through the community. I've never been to the shop never met Norm, but through these videos can just feel his devotion to knowledge of the instruments, and passing that down to all.

    This may be the shortest performance by Lemmo for a Straturday video, but how amazing. The tone of the Strat is sublime, and leaves no doubt why Joe had to have it (that and the green refin). I watched Michael's part twice, as it was one of the sweetest, soulful pieces I'd heard him play in a long while (and Michael is always amazing). Thx as always for showcasing great instruments and legendary artists like Joe and legends in the making like Lemmo!

    I never understood why Fender never came up with the idea of doing sunburst finishes from black to green (like this one), or black to blue, pink, purple or turquoise... I used to dream of finishes like that. And as you can see, it works! And yes, Fender occasionally did some wilder bursts, like the signature Bonnie Raitt strat, or the Antigua burst. But most of the time when they choose to do something like that, they tend to take it one or two steps too far.
    This guitar right here is exactly what I always hoped for as a production offer. I guess you can't have it all (unless......, I know). 😊

    I love the finish on that Strat (but I love green guitars in general, so no surprise there). It looks like it has a nice neck too. J.B. is one lucky son-of-a-gun. 🙃 I also really like Lemmo's rendition of If I Fell. Nice!
