I think these were for the american made strats-lol. So G&L went south also huh. It figures. Once the big money steps in and the master of puppets pulls the strings, even the boys in Metallica drop to their knees......Its all about profit and quality is secondary.....

I don't think there is anything wrong with Poplar as a tone wood. It's very light (not as light as Swamp Ash, but lighter than Alder) and gives a nice dark tone.
