COMMENTS
Due to the nitrocellulose clear coat, the finish of the body tends to yellow. The pickguard, instead, has the original color.
Don't confuse it with the Paisley Stratocaster (Limited Ed/Reissue Series.) and the Paisley Stratocaster (Classic Series) intended for the export market (USA and Europe).
The finishes are actually done by putting foil paper with the design on it on the guitar and gluing it to the wood. The paper is cut off at the edges of the guitar and then done again on the back of the guitar the same way. The pink is used to cover the places where the foil paper ends and creates the cool burst color.
