Thought this'd be a good thread idea. There are some beautiful strats (some 'relic's), some are famous such as SRV and Rory Gallagher's, some less so. This thread is to share pics and discuss them :)

I'll start with Walter Trout's

A real beauty.

So guys, please, post away!

How about Buddy Holly's git?

1958 Sunburst, serial # 028228

Holly last played this Strat less than an hour before being killed in the 1959 plane crash that also took the lives of Ritchie Valens & The Big Bopper.

I know this is inevitable, but I had to do it...

I drool over one of the Custom Shop replicas that sits cased at my local gee-tar shop every time I go in. It may be cliché, but what a Strat!

Cheers!

Umm... absolutely not. I think you misunderstood my wording. When I stated that "...I had to do it..." what I meant was that I had to post a couple of images of the Monterey Strat. In my eyes (and I assume I am not alone) it is the most famous of famous Stratocasters.

:D

If you want to see some famous strats in person go to the EMP in Seattle. They have the Hendrix woodstock strat and the remains of the smashed strat as well as Claptons Brownie.
