Seems a shame to re-finish that - white is such a cool colour for a Strat. I love my gold Strat, but I love my white Goldstar nearly as much.

If you must do it, I would recommend Aztec. I think that's what mine is anyway. Anything but Tokai's Gold Metallic!

Sorry about the crap pics.

I have it's sister, a BST-57V white relic, again with no backplate, it's my main gigging guitar, despite my love for Les Pauls, a Strat suits our music better, and I like a relic as you don't worry too much about the odd ding!

I agree with Mike, it's a shame to refinish a perfectly good Strat, especially a white one, if you find a gold one I'll take that off your hands!

Yes the SOB one was interesting it had aged much more than I've seen a guitar of that age do?? Maybe it had had some help with the aging process?

It was a typical Bacchus though, top quality Strat!!

Sweet looking Bacchus Rich! Reminds me a lot of Martin Rotsey's (Midnight Oil) old strat.

I still think you should get this:

Lovely strat. I think the relic look on that one is just about right - lovely example. Like others have said it's a shame to change it but it's you guitar.
