What a beautiful strat...

The development guys at Fender we’re having a meeting around the boardroom table, trying to come up with a new Strat concept.

”Hey!” Cries one of them “Why don’t we cut a chunk out of this table?”..................

Can't be that- there'd be at least 50 pages of BS about the provenance of the table, how "the continual meetings and vibrations from every coffee cup put down on it have imbued the wood with unique tonal qualities"

5k?! Rather than Truoil, is this finished with Snake Oil?

Whilst I love the look of a rosewood Tele, I don’t think the Strat suits it nearly as well. I presume it’s got the fugly large headstock too, although I can’t tell as the pics are so dark!

I think it partners a rosewood Tele - one ofy favourite looking teles - really nicely. Love the headstock too.

I'm also not keen on Daphne blue, but I love Sonic Blue (the proper one, not the faded MIM one).

Don't like it at all, what's wrong with Daphne blue?

At nearly ten pounds that's ridiculous, heavier than my Les Paul. 

My 2010 Strat is Daphne blue with matching headstock and r/w board...even my wife and daughters like it and say it's the prettiest of all my guitars...and they're not wrong.

I find this way more appealing, ……

I can't see what all the fuss is about... literally...
