These are said to be a '56 and a '61 that both weigh just over 6.5 pounds

The OP pic one is 2/56 - is yours close?

TW - nice ash, and a figured maple neck! :XRE :dude: :dude: :dude:

And the Red Devil! :wow I just saw pics of another 666 Strat and wondered what 66666 looked like!

BTW a friend calls these hardtail Strats by a different name: Sexy Triple-Pickup Telecasters. :biggrin:
