Latest addition is the 1955, in excellent condition, Bakelite plastic, ash body, plays and sounds amazing! Ash trays and tremolo bars all in the cases (not shown).

Good move on the '55, Mike! Those early 54-56 Strats are IT, and while all vintage Strats make a joyful noise, IMO no subsequent Strats have that same feel and degree of tonal magic. I remember a great Brad Whitford interview where he pointed out their special qualities, as well as listening to G.E. Smith go on about them. :dude:
