My local Luthier gave me a A OK after he checked it over and did the Pro set up on it. It has a few light swirls and light scratches and that is ok since we are supposed to play em . The flame top is a subtle flame as opposed to the intense ones . Some times the intense ones give me a headache. I welcome your opinions !

While not personally a sunburst fan, I can totally dig the flames.

Don't think I could deal with that gold though, too loud, in my opinion.

Hi Aeromat209: I agree. And that's a nice subtle flame you have there - pretty!

Those 50th Year Strats are very unusual in having flame on the back as well as the front. Cool!
