The best Strat I have ever played was "THE STRAT", which was released in the early-mid 80's and had gold hardware, a return to the 4 bolt neck (bird's eye maple) and smaller headstock, which was painted to match the body color. There's a famous John Lennon photo of him playing a red "THE STRAT". Since there are so many different models now offered by Fender, does anyone here remember "THE STRAT" and have an idea of which current model most closely resembles it in terms of sound and feel - not necessarily cosmetics?

'The Strat's were available with many different neck profiles if I am not mistaken, so I would try to find out which profile the one you played has.

Also, it had a different wiring so that the pickups could be combined as humbuckers
