    Interestingly...I love the olympic white but as it ages it turns to a cream/yellow/greenish tinge which I guess is the light aging the colour it then looks superb. Not easy to relic I guess you just have to buy OW and let the sun do its work over how ever many years.

    Actually I call that one Lake Granda Blue as it has been repainted in the past, and I think the paint may have come from Halfords... not my handiwork!!!

    White blonde with a maple board and single-ply guard, and Lake Placid Blue with a rosewood board and 3-ply off-white guard.

    Two-tone burst is nice with a maple neck too. Gold anodised guard optional with white blonde and 2-tone.

    Strats are one of the few guitars I don't really like in black, although black/tortoise guard/rosewood board is quite nice.

    I don't like 'green' guards.

    Favourites out of the relatively regular-issue ones:

    Lake Placid Blue w/rosewood and mint green guard
    Burgundy Mist w/rosewood and mint green guard
    Sonic Blue w/rosewood and mint green guard
    Olympic White w/rosewood and mint green or tortoiseshell guard

    Rarer ones:

    Candy Green w/rosewood and mint green guard, obviously - first saw it on a CS Strat and had my MJT made to look similar
    Lucerne Aqua Firemist w/rosewood and mint green guard, per the Eric Johnson model
    Shoreline Gold w/rosewood and mint green guard
    Candy Tangerine w/ rosewood and mint green (or tortoiseshell!) guard... CS-only again but fucking stunning. I mean look at this:

    Oh right, didn't know that!

    I actually found out about it when it was used on the USA Charvel So Cals from about 2008... I covet one of those like mad.
