Light

Fender recently released this lightweight ash Strat in its American Pro series. Also available are the Tele & J-Bass version. 

This brings back to mind the Lite Ash Strat (Korea) circa 2003-4 which I tried at the stores & liked. I would would have bought it save for that headstock outline. From the pictures here alone, you'd see that the latter has a peculiar trimmed curvature which was the regular design of the Strats from the late 1980s. I wonder if that was really the case- Fender re-using those neck excess for the Lite Ash models.
