Hello all,
I'm new to this forum and I'd just like to share some pictures and information about my new purchase...I just bought a 2007 custom shop '60 relic strat in shell pink from a shop in Bangkok,...it was ordered here from a previous owner who had it on consignment at the shop,...I therefore do not have all the specs,...maybe someone can give me some information about the guitar,...

Can you please tell me how to post photos on this forum,...I have tried "copy/paste" from www.imageshack.com but it doesn't seem to work...?!

Thanks again,

Peace.

After the upload, you have to copy/paste the "Forum Code" link which is provided after upload of an image. Or you take the "Direct Link" and use this forum's "Img" function.

Hope it helps

That is a 8) looking guitar. I can't imagine being seen with one strapped on, though. I guess I still have issues to work out :lol:

Very nice! I have a 1964 shell pink strat myself. It's a cool color... you don't see it very often.

Please show us a picture of the back of the headstock and a COA if you have one. Is this supposed to be a CS Strat? If so it should have a CS marking somewhere and a COA. Thanks!

Thanks for your kind comments guys !
I also like the classic 2 or 3 tone sunburst relics (as well as vintage white) with a rosewood board...However, the shell pink guitar was the only one at the dealer's,...getting used to the colour,...quite laid back and fun !

I'm now dreaming of a John Cruz or Jason Smith masterbuilt relic...but,...really expensive...
Does anyone have a JC or JS masterbuilt to show us ? I'd love to be able to get an upclose look at one....Please do post some pics if you do own one,...!

Thanks again,
peace.
Alexis.

Was trying to post a picture, but couldn't make it work.

OK I think I figured it out. Hopefully pictures of my new CS Tele & my 1964 Shell Pink Strat.

I wish they made more affordable pink strats. Right now I think only the Bullet series offers a pink version.
