The classic series are great. Strats and Teles. They replaced the MIJ/CIJ 'xx RI lines in '98/'99 when Fender stopped importing guitars from the Japanese factories.

The burgandy mist is more purpley. I do believe Nick (who hasn't been posting a lot lately) had a classic 60s in burgandy mist. It's still a great colour but an aged vintage burgandy mist is another ballpark most of the time.

But yeah, a classic 60s strat will be fantastic. I love the necks and pickups on them, not that it's a problem to find whatever strat pickups you want for cheapz these days.

Yep, they're very nice; there was a shell pink (which beats BMM, but only just) one in a local shop on and off for the last few years (belonged to a member of staff who kept changing his mind about selling it) and I really rated it. BMM will be lovely though - saw a BMM Jazz bass today with a matching headstock, and that's certainly captured my imagination...
