Not great at taking pictures but my new Jeff Beck Stratocaster in surf green is here! Yes I know its not like the original Beck model but I love it! The neck feels great and the set up from the factory is pretty darn good. I think this may be one of the nicest playing Stratocasters I have played. At least for me. Worked the tremolo and guitar stays in perfect tune. Even the action is close to where I like it. I was a little worried about the Hot Noiseless Pickups since I never have heard them before but they sound pretty darn good and the harmonics are great! Very pleased.

With a G&G case no less.

I love the Surf Green color.

Thanks all! I think the differences are the original had a fat neck up to the year 2001, different manufactured nut and had Lace PUs. I also think when Beck went to the Noiseless PUs that he had them custom wound. Think that was the main differences. Might be wrong or missing something. Regardless the neck on this one seems perfect for me. Slightly larger than what is on my America Standard but not fat at all even though I like fat necks too. This one plays very comfortable to me.The PUs sound great to my ears too. No problems with it going out of tune either when working the tremolo. Fantastic guitar! Happy I decided on this one. I love NGDs!

The surf green with aged knobs and controls is - if not the greatest - one of the greatest combinations in history. Great choice!
