Hi Nik: ah-ha! So you plumped for the quilt top. Gotta say, it looks even better in your own photos. That neck looks just gorgeous. Great haul, congrats. 8)

Hey Rip, funny you should say that. I just happen to know this Strat has a nearly-identical twin with a flame maple top. It's feeling lonely and looking for a home. I wonder if Nik would feel like posting a pic of the two guitars together? Purely for sickening lust purposes...

Cheers - C

Haha, it looks a LOT better in person, especially the neck. I can't stop staring at it while I'm playing!! It's a lot darker than the photos and an absolute thing of beauty. D Rock it's a AAA flame maple.
Here's a photo of my baby with her brother. Both beautiful, but in their own way. Mine's on the left obviously and the other is still available if anyone wants it!!

Been browsing through a few guit shop websites looking for one as nice, there are a few nice ones caught my eye, now depending on PPI outcome and next Bonus, failing that the Epi Sheri will be saying bye bye as down payment, will be paying a visit to my locals to try them out.
Funny how they're both described as quilted but to my eye completely different, Tiger maple best describes the other one dontcha think

edit..Flame, slapping forehead, though in my defence it was posted before dinner and I was as ravenous as a Tiger, I could have eaten a horse but my wife said no we had lasagna last night.....Fish.....Desert Orchid???.who knows
