Here is my new baby - 2015 American Standard with solid rosewood neck. I just picked up this Guitar Center Limited Edition! The neck is super slippery, unlike anything I have played before and I really dig the looks. Oh yeah and it smells like my Martin! I just set it up and it plays and sounds great - as any American Standard should. I'm really digging itImage[/URL[URL=http://s635.photobucket.com/user/cbdbrp/media/image2_1.jpg.html]Image[/URL[URL=http://s635.photobucket.com/user/cbdbrp/media/image1.jpg.html]Image[/URL[URL=http://s635.photobucket.com/user/cbdbrp/media/image3.jpg.html]Image[/URL[URL=http://s635.photobucket.com/user/cbdbrp/media/image2.jpg.html]Image

I prefer seeing that 1-piece rosewood neck mated to a matching body with black plastic parts. :|

Beautiful quacker, enjoy it! :D

Thanks everyone - it's definitely a different feel when playing back to back with my 2004. It's also a brighter Strat in general. I had a chance to play three of these - two Daphne Blues and one Burst and they were actually all very nice guitars. There wasn't a bad one in the bunch. One of the Blue ones was noticeably heavier and perhaps a bit darker tone wise than the other two, but the real difference is the feel of that neck - unusually slick. If you get a chance to play one, they're a lot of fun!

Please tell me this guitar is horrible, because I really, really want one and I really, really don't need another guitar. Making things even worse, Guitar Center is offering a free $100 gift card with this guitar for the rest of the month.
