So cool. Love to be able to play a '54. Just out of curiousity, how would you characterize the feel of the neck? Strats from '56 and '57 had the V-shape profile and some of them I think were rather large ("boat-neck"). I'm thinking in '54 they didn't have a definite neck shape.

Also, that '59 must be from relatively early in the year because it's got a maple neck. Most pics of '59's that I see have rosewood boards.

The '54 and '59 necks are actually surprisingly similar (round C shape), although the '54 one maybe feels slightly fuller.

The '59 has a May body date, so it must have been one of the last maple neck Strats made.

Finally a dream came true

1959 Gibson ES-335
