I'm in the process of finalizing the spec on a new lefty CS guitar and leaning towards an NOS '59 LPB Strat over sunburst with no wear or relic(ing) of the paint finish. I figure over the years it should age out just like a true custom color from back in the day, when Fender would spray custom colors over sunburst bodies. Opinions ?

LPB is a cool colour on a Strat! :)

Nice,

I love a LBP strat.

I am in two minds about this. I have a relic strat and have an NOS Jazzmaster on order.

If you go for a relic or closet classic finish you won't notice when you first ding the guitar and it will be less of an issue.

With hindisght I am kind of wishing I'd gone for a closet classic or a light relic on the JM which I could then wear.

Are you going for sunburst under the LPB or just LPB.

Also feel free the share what pickup and neck specs you are going for.
