the sz510 is a great guitar.

And I'm pretty sure that isn't rust on the fretboard, cause thats a huge streak.

I didn't say for sure it wasn't rust. It's just that I've never seen a rust streak that big, so I'm assuming that it isn't

I'm about 99.9999% sure that's not rust, looks to just be the color of the wood.

well if the one on their site has the streak, then you can be sure that its just the grain pattern.

It isn't rust. I own that guitar in the Red/burgandy color. I love it. It has a great neck and awsome tone. The only thing that I would change is the bridge pickup could be a bit hotter. I will change that in time. My avatar is me holding mine with the color inverted. It gets rave reveiws from me.
