New Guitar from Oasis

[dave]

I have just taken delivery of a '56 Fiesta Red/gold hardware NOS USA Strat. It has the 'vibe' and the tone (good woods used!!) I have been looking for. It was well set up and I had a 5 way switch fitted because I use those 'in-between' settings a lot.

A big 'thank you' to the guys at the Ringwood shop for taking the time to ensure I had the guitar of my dreams, set up to my requirements, on time and with great courtesy. It's nice to deal with fellow Hank fans when choosing a new guitar.

The '56 plus EFTP on a Magicstomp, through a Peavey Classic 30, give an excellent cover sound for Shads tunes.

Hi Dave,
Good to hear that you have chosen a good sounding guitar with good wood. I have heard of so many times about expensive intruments (including custom shop) that don't cut it (and played one or two as well).
I have never heard anything bad about Oasis Music, and Howard gives me the impression that he is a straightforward honest person to deal with.
Regards,
Charlie

Hi Dave

As a regular customer of Oasis for several years I can fully endorse what you and Charlie have said about them, particularly Howard Gillespie.

The last time I was in the shop (3/4 weeks ago) there were two 56 NOS Strats on the wall, one new and one used although the latter looked like new. I presume it was one of these that you bought - which one was it? Whichever one it was, they both looked the biz and I'm not in the least surprised that you're delighted with your purchase.

Cheers.

Tony
