Another vote for not a straosphere. Maybe not a stratocaster but some other indo import variant. There have been several of these zoas that look very similar, like Llama Snack, Chiquita, and Aegis of Athenas, and even some that are unnamed. This one has too much yellow and not enough black when compared to readily available images online https://www.google.com/search?q=stratosphere+zoa. Here's a sale thread on this forum https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/stratosphere-zoa.301417/

At the end of the day, if someone is willing to buy this then, hey, all power to them and the seller.

They are stratosphere’s but I understand the confusion, and hesitation.

Stratocasters are definitely different than these. Again, I’ll post my best shot at better pics tonight.

These are my casters. Some of them morph to different black rings as we can see the clear difference from the same colony.

I know you are wrong, but I appreciate your opinion.

I don't understand how you can't see the complete and very obvious difference but okay.
Because I know what they were. I’m going to lower their light level and let the new babies speak for themselves.

It’s all good

So there is a zoa worth $1000....

Is there one more valued, or is this like the Holy Grail of zoas?

@Rostato Interested in checking these out in person (not looking at purchasing) and would bring my D4S + porthole over for some clean shots if you're interested (never seen these in person and would love to take some pics). Could also bring my Gryphon saw over if you're want to try to split the frag up into two.

Yep, I'm in Campbell. I'll be heading up to Berkeley sometime in the next few days as well so will be passing by. Shoot me a PM of your address as well as your availability if you want to take me up on the offer.
