I can't view the other thread either, so I'm in on this one.

Victim of mild pimpage with all black hardware and built-in wireless, and I just can't resist a Strat knob.

So what if I like Strat knobs? Deal with it!

It may not be solid orange (the finish is actually called Autumn Redburst, with a beautiful sparkle that looks even better in real life) but the center bit is definitely orange! It used to have a tortoise pickguard but I changed it to a black one. Still keep the original one around in case I ever change my mind, but I think the black one looks better on there. Fantastic instrument, rocksolid, sounds great, and no weak G string issues whatsoever.

Gorgeous, a very subtle burst and funky sparkle

Looks nice! I don't usually like black pearloid pickguards, but this one goes really well with the orange.

What preamp is in it?
Are those Rotosound Nexus strings? How do you like them? I absolutely hated them on my G&L SB-2 and Cort B4! Thin and awfully dry.

Cheers buddy,

According to Bassdoc, that's grey pearl, so that might be why you like it?

The pre is a Seymour Duncan blackouts stacked model and indeed they are. I love the nexus strings. Really bright, and feel amazing. I tried DR coated strings before (neons and black beauties) and hated them both, sounded ok but the coating felt "sticky" and I kept getting friction burns. My only gripe with the nexus, is that the coating wears off ridiculously fast.

Nice!
I definitely have to post my orange fretless Jazz...
It also has Nexus black coated strings, and SJB-3 pickups!
