Got my 2011 Custom Deluxe in 3TSB with bird's eye maple neck a few weeks ago. Love it to bits but I'd love to know how come it smells so lovely. When I first opened the case I was struck by the sweet, almost Playdoh-like smell (if anyone else remembers that!) and even though it's fading a little now, it's still very noticeable. It's actually quite addictive...

The guitar's listed as having a urethane finish but I've never smelt one like this before :-) I wondered if it might be the case (lovely blonde with deep red interior) rather than the guitar, but it's difficult to tell.

Any ideas, anyone?

I've got the same (strat ?) in candy blue with humbucker .
It's realy a very very good strat but the picks are too away from the strings to have the "strat sound" and you ?.

(sory for my bad english :mrgreen: )

It smells like all fender custom's guitar.
I have got the strat since 1 month ago and a custom telecaster thinline since 3 days ago.Same case and same smelt (sory for the translation "meme odeur" in french).
And yes it smells lovely !!!
