Guitar players you most identify with a strat
I saw this thread about SGs, but I couldn't find the same about strats. So, who do you most identify with strats? I would have to say Clapton, Hendrix and Gilmour.

Re: Guitar players you most identify with a strat
I love thinking of SRV with a strat, but damn if I didn't find this video:

YouTube - Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble interview (1985)
