That is going to need a WAY better pick to get into the poll.

We all know there is only one strat that can win this. It is the same one that always wins.

Locking tuners

 
Re: Category #1 SUBMISSIONS: Best Fender Stratocaster

Here is my Strat. It has an LSR nut, locking Spezel locking tuners and a Babicz bridge. The bridge pickup is a covered P-Rails with a three-way switch to go from P90-Hum-Rail, a Bill Lawrence L250 in the middle and a Covered Pearly Gates in the neck. So essentially it is a three humbucker Strat.

2003 USA Candy apple red and maple board
6100 frets, Callaham steel bridge block with vintage style straighter whammy arm.
D'Allen Voodoo 69 handwound pickups, chrome knobs because the middle is a push/pull that reverses the phase of the middle pickup so the between positions can get nasally and swonky.
It also has split post vintage tuners.

I'm pretty sure this hasn't won anything before - I'm sure Ace will let me know though

2000 Fender 'Lonestar' Strat, with many an improvement or mod, whichever you prefer. Demon in the bridge, and Five-Two's in the neck & middle

This is the sexiest of them all.
 
Re: Category #1 SUBMISSIONS: Best Fender Stratocaster

While hot rodded Strats with funky pickups and modern bridges are hella cool, something about a plain vintage style Strat just does it for me.

American Vintage '59 in Faded Sonic Blue. Does it have to be a currently owned guitar? My brother has my old Graffiti Yellow, that always drew people's attention. Maybe not in a good way though.

Oh, and IT'S SPELLED SQUIER.

Edit: I can upload more casual looking pictures too!

Picked this 2000 MIM up on Friday as a basket case and it's still a work in progress.
So far new set of Ghoto locking tuners full clean up and set up just to see how it responds played out live but have a parts box full of stuff so--. Here is a quick set of cell phone photos from tonight.
