Just picked this up yesterday from GC after about a 2 week wait. Amer Std in Sienna Sunburst. Photos truly do not do this beautiful finish justice; it is eye-popping. I'm glad I waited. :mrgreen:

The guitar plays and sounds great, and for now I'm honestly happy with the setup out of the box. Did I mention that it sounds great? 8)

Enjoy the photos!

Great looking guitar. That's my favorite color and will be my next. One thing though, do yourself a favor and take the decals off before the pick guard starts to fade. That decal will hinder the natural fading process underneath.

Will do. I took those shots just a few minutes after getting her home.

I love Sienna Sunburst. Even the name is pretty.

Very elegant grain on yours. Nice guitar!

Really nice guitar!!

It's funny, I hate the (very similar) Cherry Burst finish on Les Pauls...but on a Strat it just looks somehow...gorgeous!!
