These are seriously the best MIMs ever. They are so perfect. I think it's the neck. The dimensions are just right, and the 7.25" radius is the best.

They still make them but Shell Pink was replaced by Candy Apple Red back in 2004.

Thats what it says on Fender's webpage (Link) .

Musicians Friend sells a Sonic Blue 60s Classic strat so maybe that was made just for them.

Oh wait,that is a Classic Players 60's Strat (Link)

These are original '60s Classic Series Strats at MF (Link)

I used to have a late 90s MIM burgundy mist 60's strat.

Great guitar, but I always disliked the radius
