The guitar, called the 'Black Strat', will be available from September 22 and is based on the star's iconic instrument that helped create his band Pink Floyd's revolutionary sound. said: "I told Fender that it was just an ordinary Strat that I bought, but I must say they’ve done a great job of recreating it."

| Re: Dave's getting a sig. strat. Good deal! Maybe I'll put in my order early. "Shall we buy a new guitar?" HELL YES!

| Re: Dave's getting a sig. strat. If one does not care about resale value, I recommend saving the cash and building your own strat from top quality materials. Built a ONE peice swamp ash body with custom neck for half the price of the guilmour model. If one likes to change guitars every few years, not such a good idea as the partscasters do not resell for very much. However the sound and quality surpasses anything fender puts out. |

| Re: Dave's getting a sig. strat. Particularly since this Strat will set the Gilmour fanatics back upwards of four grand.

| Re: Dave's getting a sig. strat. Since the "MSRP" is 4 large, we can probably expect to pick up a copy for somewhat less after some time goes by, perhaps even $2000. But that's still quite a high price for a strat. Nevertheless, I plan to keep my eyes open for a possible bargain on one down the road.

| Re: Dave's getting a sig. strat. HERE is my local dealer. There it is. In stock. $4000. I'm going to drive over tomorrow and play around with it, but I just can't justify paying 4 grand for a Strat. I've bought several nice guitars from these guys in the past and they'll probably offer me a "deal"...(like $3750)...but...
