Pics first:
So yes, the surf green strat I swore I would never let go was traded in for this baby. I just wasn't getting along with the neck on the Strat, so I don't think I'm gonna do surf green Strats anymore.
Anyway, I got this in last night and had a good number of hours to play it. Of course the primary concern was the neck, and I'm happy to say it fits just right! It's got the satin back which I prefer and the rosewood really contrasts well with the pink. The white pearl inlays are a nice subtle touch too.
It sounds very good also. As mentioned, the pots will be swapped out soon. But the pickups are a bit higher output than the Strat, but the tone is definitely there. I find myself using the trem more often than I probably should, but it works so well I can't help myself.
Overall, I'm extremely pleased with it. The overall quality of the guitar is top notch and checks all the boxes for me. Now back to playing.
Thanks!

Wow... It's really beautiful. Too bad they made it backwards. Maybe they can fix it under warranty

What's wrong with the pots?
