Title: Alembic Blaster
Post by: csissom on April 24, 2006, 02:41:43 PM

Here is a Stratoblaster add on for a Stratocaster, starting at 40 bucks?

Question:
 
Is that a good price?  Are these things worthwhile?  I have an old Strat that might benefit from some boosting.

The blaster is a wonderful little device that really adds a LOT of punch to a stock strat.  I doubt it will stay at $40.  These go new for $95 from Alembic, so there is still room for a bargain.  If you get one, I doubt you will be disappointed.  I had one on my '61 Strat for many years, until the guitar got so valuable that I essentially put it back to stock.  Good luck!
