Yes, please! Most if not all new models seem to be up on the website—I hope the guide will follow soon.

How long does it normally take until the new guide is released in the year? I hope it's coming any day now on their website.

Late reply, sorry. Anyway, it has now been linked on their site for a few weeks. But they‘re always very happy to help if contacted in my experience.

My next order is probably going to be another Clapton Masterbuilt, but I wanted to take a look at some of the new options as there'll definitely come a time where I'll want an ash-body Strat.

I was also interested in the Custom Shop Elite Strats and their base-model specs. Have to say I quite like them. :mrgreen:

I bet that if you want that Clapton to be a TK build, you're going to have a long wait. When you consider all the special projects these guys wind up doing its a wonder that the proletariat's orders get any shrift at all.

Apologies, mon ami. Where the Custom Shop is concerned, you are rrespectfully and deservedly out of that class. It is reserved for the rest of us consumers who are obliged to wait on lines for our bread. :wink: :wink:

By the way, thoughts went your way on the new from Paris today. Good to know that all is well with you.

Hi ZZ Doc

No, my idea was : how any customer of the Fender Custom Shop could be a "proletarian" when you consider the price he has to pay to afford one of their guitars.
All is safe here
Allthe best

Understood. I was simply expropriating the term from the classic socio-economic-political uses of the term in the Communist Manifesto to differentiate the 'every person' in their consumer base from those who might be blessed with bourgiosie back stage passes. i have memories of conversations here concerning a member's 'two years and waiting' order and that, nearly a decade ago. In my own case, after 12 months the guitar came with the wrong neck and it took another six months to replace it and even then it wasn't quite right. Hence, I wonder who's getting the priorities.
