I downloaded this pic a while ago thinking I was downloading all of the views of the guitar, but ended up with only this one! Trouble is I can't remember the site I got it from! Wondered if anyone knows what this color scheme is? I think it's from the Custom Shop and may have been a special run or a one of? The closest I've come is Cherry Burst FMT (Flamed Maple Top) and unless it's just the photo, it's just not quite the same! If anyone could shed some light on this, I would be greatful as I love the finish on it and I'm dying to know what it is!!! Many thanks in advance for any info passed on.

Looks like Amber stained flamed maple. Hope that helps.

Thanks wferguson. You were actually close. Got some info from another forum and it's a Custon Shop 2011 Sunset Orange Transparent Deluxe Strat. you can see it at: -

I'm sure that this strat came also with a maple neck option.

The flame maple top looks gorgeous on that trans sunset orange finish!

My only gripe: this guitar lacks off a locking bridge option with an LSR Roller Nut and staggered locking tuners. Also, the S-1 and Passing Lane switches are not present, though I know we can order a Custom Deluxe with all these extras at an extremely high price.

IMO the 2011 Deluxe FMT HSS deserves a compound radius neck!

Hey Proff. Musician
Given your comments...I would agree, however, these options would (I would have thought) would be avialable from Custom Shop if you were ordering the guitar from them? Especially given the price you would have to pay to get it!! Those options you have mentioned would be what I would go with as well, including a matching headstock! I reckon it would and sound awesome!!!!! Your views??

PS. Incidently...as far as the bridge is concerned...the new Super V would be the....dogs bollocks!! As they say!!!

The custom shop puts out guitars that it makes in assembly, much like the standard guitars. If you wanted those options, you would have to order your own guitar, through a dealer. The guitar does look pretty awesome, except for the rosewood neck though..
