The only thing I ever really wanted was a Strat. . I started playing guitar after seeing Jimi Hendrix on TV the day he died. . . then I got Deep Purples' Fireball album which was also a big influence. . I have a collection of more than 200 of them that includes Strats from every year since March 1954 - the first month the Strat was made
I still play Strat, I don't know nothing else. Strats and Telecasters.
