Nice but you are missing a tele in that collection. :lol: As far as the graffiti yellow MIM you got for 400 from GC that seems like a good deal..however it might be quite subjective as far as appreciating the color for many. I like it simply because it is different.. other then used on the Jeff Becks I have not seen many strats in that color.

I like it, there is something about having something that not everyone else has...

So.....how does it sound and play?

Plays great, battery was almost dead replaced it and put a set of Elixer 9's on it. A friend of mine owns a music store and collects guitars, he tells me that the Yellow ones are extremely rare to find for sale. He's had 4 come into his shop to be sold within 18 months, 3 were black and 1 was red. I'm going to bring it in when he gets back to have him give it a good going over. He asked me if I was interested in trading it for a Highway 1... No thanks.

I love that colour!

But then I love any colour that isn't Black, Sunburst or Olympic White

Love Graffiti Yellow. This color is in high demand now in older Strats like from 87-89, such as seen in the American Standard and Strat Plus lines. Nice score and a good choice!
