Yeah the HW1s were nice guitars - I remember them being a bridging price between Mexican and USA made but with an accidentally excellent result.
I could never afford one at the time and when I could, I ended up getting a cheap roadworn strat which also has a nitro finish and good vibes. Don’t think I have played in a band since I got it though :(
Don’t remember HW1’s being that expensive when they came out. I got it in my head that I wanted one when they came out in around 2002 I think but the first uk shipments was delayed and I had cash burning a hole in my pocket. Waited a month or two then dropped 700 on a 2001 USA tele in Andy’s instead. Still really like the spec on the HW1’s tho...
