Because I always hate to see beautiful instruments hanging on a wall, and videos say more than pictures, I think it is time to start a video thread. First write a nice little intro about your strat and possibly a photo, followed by a movie where she is played! I'll go first..

2009 Fender Custom Shop 60's LTD Relic
In my possession for a month now and i think you cannot get closer to the holy grail strat than this (unless you get an original 50 years old original). It is a 3 tone sunburst but the aging made the red color fade a bit leaving a beautiful authentic gradient.

2007 Fender Jimmie Vaughan Signature Stratocaster
My first real guitar and will never go. She is about to undergo a refret because the frets have really become a mess. In my view, this strat is the absolute top when it comes to price / quality ratio. The neck is fantastic and in general sits somewhere between Am Standards and the Artist series. Not bad for a Mex! She is entirely original, I just replaced the pickguard, the tone controls and pickup covers.

Unboxing my new strat. I recorded this historical moment.
These are the very few seconds of my very first contact with her.
After seeing the video myself, I noticed a sigh that was completely unintentional... :roll:

Alright....let's give it a go!!

Here's me and my Fender 60's Reverse Special Stratocaster with DiMarzio Area 58's in the neck and middle and a DiMarzio Virtual Solo in the bridge.
It's a great looking guitar....I HAD to gut it and put new pickups in; the stock ones totally SUCKED!!
(The Area's have become my favorite noiseless Strat replacement pup!)
Through a Fender Hot Rod DeVille, Fulltone O.C.D. and a Boss DD-3.

The Sunfire Orange Strat is one in the video I posted. (The other is still in the shop) Just jamming at home through a TRRI and a few pedals. It has the Original MIM body & trem, a Warmoth Neck, "F" tuners & neckplate, late 60's headstock decal, a mint guard with aged white plastic parts, two Fralin Blues Specials (Neck & Middle) and a DiMarzio 36th Anniversary humbucker in the bridge. The pots have been upgraded to CTS, it has a CRL 5-way now and a Switchcraft jack... hmm, what else? Set up with 11's and 5 springs for the trem. Enjoy...
