Share pictures! Image source and any additional info about the guitar is always appreciated.

We couldn't choose, so here's a shot of Brad's Strat:

I've got to admit- Brad's Strat is a beauty. Very stylish. And 53magnatone's is really classic !

There have been several favorite Strats for me through the years. For the time being it is my newly acquired American Deluxe HSS (Shawbucker) - which I bought 2 weeks ago. I might be a little biased , but this color/style was something I chose because I liked the look of it. This was the one I really liked among the Deluxes with a Shawbucker.
I am very satisfied with its finish, playability and sound-palette , and consider myself very lucky :D

It would be between these two if I limited it to Strats I own.

FSR Surf Green American Standard and Sonic Blue American Vintage '61 Thin-Skin.

Gotta love the classic car finish colors. :)

I'm loving that black pick guard on the red body.

I'm a fond of transparent teal strats with matching abalone dots on a maple neck.

(I don't own the pictured guitar).

Bingo!. This is understated beauty. I normally am not keen on gold hardware, but this combo with the gold knobs is just right.

Beautiful girl you've! :P

This quacker has been modified with gold-plated hardware and an aged white pearloid pickguard, the stock bent steel bridge was exchanged for the older stainless steel block type found on American Series Stratocasters produced between 2000 and 2007. :D

In my eyes it's my 2014 Jeff Beck in luscious Surf Green.
But wait, not only is it attractive, It plays and sound just as good!
