I remember pining over one of those yngwie malmseen strats. A local music shop now closed had one so I could play it. Brings back a lot of memories.

How are you enjoying it?

I absolutely love it. It is a wonderful sounding and playing guitar. I had no problem acclimating to the scalloped neck. One minor complaint (that others have noted as well) is the high E tends to slide off the side of the neck too easily, especially at the higher frets.
 
1998 USA with Wilkinson bridge, scalloped neck,

kill switch volume knob and push push tone pot to get neck/bridge goodness. Does everything, I don't need any other guitar.
 
I need The Pickup Selector and Volume to be in a Strat position..
But my Guitars are all 2 H's
 
I would go for the early 2000s Lonestar strats. I collect them and think they are the best build and timewise considering the overwound pearly gates.

The Frets are actually scalloped, I think they look bigger than normal because of it. I actually took a chance and did the scalloping myself. It worked out ok, and then I dyed the fretboard, because I prefer the look, its actually maple.

are my eyes deceiving me or you missing a couple of fret markers? I guess from the scalloping?

Yeah, they came off, but I kind of dig the look. That said, Im going to have to order some white stick ons, cause I have no idea where I am on the fretboard.
 
I need white stick on ones too. Please let me know where you find them. I want to cover up the yellow ones on a Charvel I have - Wildcard #7.
