Thanks,
I will take some better pics in daylight so the color and the satin finish of the neck pop up better.

Tasteful and elegant......the hallmarks of Fender's Stratocaster.

Candy Apple Red is a beautiful color. My Deluxe Strat Plus in Mystic Ice Blue Metalic has the same issue when being photographed. The color is very blue (think light blue aluminum foil used for Easter candy), but when I photograph it, it looks like a metalic gray.

Here's a link to some photos: http://customshopguitars.com/products/f ... aster-plus

If you look up my name on YouTube: Paris Thalheimer, you find some videos I did reviewing the guitar and at least one of me playing it.

I recently purchased some more cards. An out of phase card and one that puts your 2 and 4 positions in parallel.

Can't seem to din your review on American Special Stratocaster?

I did a review of the Dlx Strat Plus, not the Special.
