Hi Bruce!
Thanks for the welcome back. I've been really dedicating myself to
learning to play the guitar for a while now and thoroughly enjoying it.
It's a wonderful new pursuit for me, in that it's something I can study
and do regardless of the weather, or where I happen to be. I've even
written my first song, which I've been working on for the past several
days. I even went out and got one of those ZOOM H1's that Mark Roberts
suggested I get a while back to help in the process.
As for the whammy bar, it's safely ensconced in the case. I decided to
"deck" the tremolo the night I got my Strat. I'm just not much of a
tremolo guy, so I thought I'd do that to maybe get a little more sustain
and to help keep it in tune a little better.
You know, I just might have to learn to play Free Bird -- at which point
I'll send you an .mp3 recorded on my ZOOM! ;)

Welcome back, Walt! I was thinking about you the other day and
wondering where the heck you've been.
That's a fine looking instrument, and nicely captured. But where's the
whammy bar? And also, I've got a request: Free Bird!

I just saw Darren's image of his cigar box guitar and figured I'd parachute
in from a long hiatus from the PDML to share a shot of my latest enablement.

It's a 2013 Stratocaster Standard Plus-Top (aged cherry burst) -- made in
Mexico. (I just can't rationalize plunking down the dough for an American
Standard.)
It still needs a professional setup, so it's not quite the monster of a
guitar that my Telecaster is. Still, there's nothing quite like that new
guitar smell, and I haven't seen many Strats like it.
Thanks for looking!
