Does anyone know anything about this Custom Shop Strat? Neckplate says "57 Special". Custom Shop Logo says "0_ of 60". Besides that it looks like a new (not reliced) '57 two-tone sunburst flamed body, white single-ply guard, flamed maple neck Strat with a tweed case. Would love to find something similar with a rosewood board.

I can't help you, sorry. :( A poster that frequents this forum named Alain will certainly know. When he signs on I'm sure he will help you identify this guitar. Welcome to the forum and good luck! :)

I don't think so. This guitar is from the 1990s - perhaps '91 or '92. Isn't the George Fullerton a relatively new model?

YES! THAT'S IT! Any details on it, i.e., how it rates compared to other CS Strats? The serial # on mine is in the single digits.

heh... sorry to say that it rates poorly against other Custom Shop models; you'd best send it to me immediately!

ah... no, I can't even joke about this, really, you're a lucky lucky person... don't like your chances of finding an additional one, though...
