Personal Thoughts
This is a really smart Custom Shop Strat spec and one that sits nicely between vintage feel and modern usability. The Post-Modern models were great for that, taking a classic Strat platform and giving it a few well-judged upgrades without losing the familiar look. The compound radius, 6105 frets and RSD bridge make a big difference in use, giving it a slicker, more forgiving feel than a strict vintage-spec build, while the rosewood board and '63 C neck keep it rooted in that classic Strat territory. Firemist Gold is a brilliant colour on these as well — classy, slightly unusual, and much more interesting than the standard safe options. A very tasteful Custom Shop Strat that should appeal both to players and collectors.
