Thanks, Joe.

No doubt it is my prettiest strat guitar. As much as I love my poppin Comanches, the simple elegance of the Jimmie Vaughan is still my easy favorite, visually. Still can't remember why I passed up a twin to it mint used in Covina.

But thaus' 98 Squier is got that same pure vibe, and those sound like great mods.

I'm impressed with my new early 2006 sunburst Highway One, nice rosewood board and the overwound alnico 3s are not bad, but visually of all my current strats, even with all the polishing of the nitro, it comes tied for last with my red metalflake FSR MIM no pickguard model. The wine Highway One maple neck Tele same up much stronger visually. I think if I replace the neck with SMO-V and the pickguard with parchment single ply I'll be happier.
