Steinberger Spirit GT-Pro DeluxeTheir words
I own an American Fender Stratocaster, but with the VG-99 I used an Ibanez Strat clone because it's lighter and feels more comfortable; now I use a Steinberger Spirit GT-Pro Deluxe because it's even lighter.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
