    The checkered binding is cool...

    I have a REAL 1955 sparkle gold (originally 2-tone sunburst) hard tail Stratocaster that I'm currently working on...

    I am putting it up for sale tomorrow.
    I have a Shur Badger 18 with cabinet, Fender Supersonic head with 4x12 Cabinet and A swart AST head and cabinet. I like the Allen, but the cabinet has 2x10's and isn't really good for Rock and Roll. It has no beef, even when goosed with dirt pedals.

    Sweet Sarge. Looks like you should be playing at the 1955 Under The Sea prom night dance with that thing. Very cool looking. I didn't notice the checker binding until Elvis pointed it out. Extra awesome. Big pimpin!

    Maybe it brightens the bass strings or vice-versa...

    Or maybe it channels the spirit world...

    Or Maybe Sarge never noticed...

    Mr Page loved his Teles too.. Not just Keef.
    And the most recent concert I saw of the stones, he
    was plugged in for sure.

    I love teles too. Much better for chunky full rhythm chords than
    a strat. Ive never seen a Tele like this one in my life.
    Sarge definately has his own very unique taste.

    Beautiful guitar!! The color scheme screams bright sounding but the wood type should be chunky... How does it sound Sarge?
