Welcome to "Friends Pick Friday" at Emerald City Guitars! From time to time we're going to have some of the incredibly talented friends of the shop come in to hang and check out some awesome guitars!

Today we have Aaron Hiebert, a talented Seattle local who plays with his band Shaggy Sweet, who... really knows his way around a Stratocaster (to say the least!). With both a 1958 three-tone sunburst Strat and a 1971 Olympic White Strat, Aaron shows us around a custom Mesa Boogie Express 5:25, exploring the vast array of tones you can pull out of this amazing combination!

For more information about the guitars and amp, please check out (oldest to newest!):
