At long last, I picked up my Am Deluxe Strat. :D :D Here are a few pictures. The Montego Black has gold flecks in it which you might be able to see in the picture of the body...

The last picture also includes my 1985 MIJ Strat. Now I can't wait to add the Shoreline Gold CP '50s I've got on layaway... :D

Glad to see you have an American Deluxe. That was always my dream guitar, and I finally got it a little over a year ago. I've been extremely happy with mine, and it will be one guitar that I'll never get rid of. I ended up with the SSS configuration, with the color of Chrome Silver with a black pearloid pickguard, and black pickup covers.

Stunning guitar. There's a Tele in the local music store that I frequent that has the same Montego color scheme which I've always thought looked sharp. Congrats on the Strat. I just recently joined the American Deluxe Strat club with a SSS Chrome Silver and Black Pearloid pickguard same as Syeklops.

Definitely a great Strat! I hope you are liking yours as much as I am liking mine! The Montego Black is indeed subtle; almost as if it were only meant for the player/owner to truly enjoy..

Thanks, I'm really enjoying it! It plays so nice and I really like the tone variations available with the S-1 switching... Setup was fine right off the rack...

Ah, I wish we had 200 acres... Three is more than enough, though, especially when its time to mow...

I'm lovin' the Am Deluxe. I had it on layaway since April and finally bringing it home has given me some temporary relief from G.A.S. :D
