Michael Romeo & Fender

This is a pure guess, but I think some of the parts on the Communion and the Oracle (both rhythm and leads) sound more like a strat than other parts of the cd. Those guitar parts sound lighter with more of a single coil sound than the heavier sound on other songs. I am certainly not a guitar tech guru, but I too have heard that MJR used strats on some parts of the recording. I would be interested in knowing the answer to this as well. As long as MJR doesn't switch solely to strats...I don't like the strat rhythm sound much.
