    Hi Guys- Thanks for all the great help. I know it seems like an absurd question but a lot of these new audio computer manufacturers suggest against using virus protection. I just read the FAQ at www.rainrecording.com that suggests against it completely as it is to processor intensive and...

    Thanks for the suggestions but I already have a 78 strat. I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth the wait to get a deluxe telecaster(w fender/fishman bridge) instead of the standard(with deltatone pickups, etc.) although I could buy a standard right nowfor 640 w/hard case.
