There is no cooler color than sunburst on a Stratocaster - my opinion, of course - so, what you got?

I like a good burst, but hate when it's simply a ring around the body. They all look like this on the net I guess because the camera screws with the red. But nothing can top a faded oly white!!

Stormbringer, bela Zaga! :drool

Sunburst + RW board... such a classic combination! My next strat is going to be like that for sure.

Your opinion...I think sunburst Strats are boring as hell. Give me a custom color any day.

Thank you Brazilian guy, it's the best Strat I've ever had, period. Sweet and powerful. Got it at a local store called (ironically)Twotone and it's supposed to be a copy of a 62 Strat. Really worth checking out, amazing building quality.

Brand New Am Std Strat...

I went through a bunch in the store looking for the magical one...

I'm amazed at the quality and attention to detail in current Fenders..

To be honest, I'd like it to be a bit thicker, but it's OK, I can deal.

Of course, that's coming from an SG Special with a 50's neck

Even though I don't like to play 7.25" radius fret-less guitars it doesn't get much nicer than that.
