My 05' Fender Japan 57RI Strat.
Just got her back from the tech after a set up. It's been a tough week without her, when you buy a new guitar you want to play her, not leave her with a guitar tech :/

Thought i'd share. Hope these links work :wink:
Cheers, Ray

Very nice! I really like that last pic. So what's the story? How did you acquire it?

Not much of a story really...
I was in the market for a new electric, and in the past i'd generally had P90's in my guitars, so i was really looking for slash saving for a gibson les paul jr.
But when i saw this second hand online for $800 NZ dollars, about US$550 i had to have it.
Turns out they appear to have CustomShop Texas Specials in them too so thats a bonus :D
