The photos are pretty accurate on the color. The full guitar shot is very close to the true color; the body close-up looks a little lighter and more orange, probably due to the proximity of the camera flash. The finish quality on the guitar is really quite exceptional for an inexpensive instrument.

Fender's Fiesta Red is really more of an orange-red than a true red, and many photos I've seen of vintage Strats in this color have faded to a dark salmon pink shade.
