I'm not sure which blade I'll use yet.
That is great, I just picked up a N2 super speed today and cleaned it up and am also going to test it tomorrow.
Let's see that bad boy!!!!

I don't have it yet it is in the mail. I guess I used the term picked up a little loosely
Pics or it didn't happen.
I found a q4 '62 super speed a few weeks ago at the flea market, and it just so happened to be my dad's birth razor.

I have a G4 slim that my dad bought new in high school
Congrats! - And I'm picking up a ´53 at the post office in an hour! - Pics to follow 
I just finished off 24 hours of stubble with my birth year H3 Slim. Astra SP blade, Proraso blue, Slim on setting 6.
For these day to day shaves I generally do one N/S pass followed up by an ATG pass and minor touch up. Followed up with a healthy dose of Speick AS. Setting 6 gave me great efficiency and blade feel. The Astra SP was smooth and efficient. It's just tough for me to top a combination like this. You're going to love your Slim!

Congrates. The Super Speed is still a classic and great little shaver that has stood the test of time. I still use my Z-3 (TV Special cased) in my 7 razor rotation.
Like everyone else said, you'll love your SS. I've got a '64 Flare Tip, along with a 1950 '40s style SS, and a Black Tip, and they're all excellent razors. Congrats!

Gee whiz, my vision is terrible.
OP I thought you were talking about the Slim!!
Ha ha! Yeah, your post about your Slim (it is a nice looking Slim!) in this thread about Super Speeds was a little puzzling. (but, we weren't going to say anything... )
They say as you get older, your eye sight is the 2nd thing to go...
EDIT: OK, I just now saw where the OP mentioned his G4 Slim, and you were replying to that. Now I need to get MY eyes checked!!

Hehe, thank you. My vision is getting fixed, I just need to get a properly measured set of reading glasses. Right now I'm trying to get by with a cheapie off the shelf pair (they barely work, but get me by).
OP, fantastic looking SS!
