Bought from Hogans Music, Newbury UK. For the rather reduced price of £800. It is Red, with maple fretboard, the usual abalone inlays, aged plastic, locking machineheads etc....

It looks amazing, the maple and the red along with the aged plastic and (now rusty... i let them go that way) screws it looks so vintage.
The neck is like butter and the frets and attention to detail is meticulous. It sounds beautifull. Every one of the noiseless pickups sounds wonderfull. The vibrato (well at Fender they call it tremelo... Wrong!) is smooth and and everything stays in tune.

The wammy bar falls out. Constantly, it used to be alright, but it just keeps falling, not that i use it that often.
I sometimes wish i had bought the fat strat instead.

Solid as a rock. Nice and rugged yet all very very well done and tastefull.

Im not going to need to replace this. It is a perfect guitar, but it does come at a price.
