In all honesty, I don't really get why guitars with coil splitting switches and phase switches are uncommon. I can't imagine wanting to limit the instruments range so much. But it seems like the majority of instruments are either all-single-coil, or all-humbucker, and that's that. And no phasing. I don't recall ever accidentally flipping a coil or phase switch, cause they're generally much more out-of-the-way than volume knobs or pickup selector switches. I don't get why these options are so unpopular.

Now here's my silly answer.

Pretty nice clean tone... sounded like awful garbage distorted out of a Marshall.

I have to admit I never understood the "super strats"

"Marshall". I think I just got to the bottom of the problem you're having. I use mine through a 1969 Marshall JMP sometimes and it's smoking though.

I wouldn't mind one of these for my birthday...

now i really like the starcatser but some people hate them. personally there is no way i would spend 2 grand on one but the you go. as for ovations, are people forgetting the ultra gp? its not just a silly lie, they really are the best sounding distortion tone that i have ever heard in my life. i think summerlin had one or has one if i remember correctly. someone here did any way. i love my one but i think eastwood guitars has started to reissue them.
