I'm browsing already quite for some time through this forum and I try to absorb all that knowledge
. Thanks a lot to Omar and all the contributors btw! 
Basically, I believe I'm ready to get started. There are just a couple of questions left.
I'm thinking of building an HRM head (maybe combo) with a single tube reverb for a guitar buddy (I don't do this for profit...just 4 fun). He mainly plays Strat (bluesey, jazzy, funky..).
From what I read here it seems that Strats fit better to the 80s tone stack.
Would it be OK to use the 80s stack with an HRM or would it be better to do it Non-HRM plus 80s stack?
What would you suggest?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance!
Regards,
Markus
