Current favourite guitar? My sunburst '91 Strat Plus.

Favourite backup guitar? My sunburst partscaster, all Fender bits but all from different Strats I have raided over the years. :mrgreen:

Next favourite? My sunburst '86 Japanese hardtail Strat.

Least favourite Strat colour? Sunburst! :shock:

I really don't like it, but it just happens to have been that almost every Strat which has called out to me and just felt and sounded extra special has been sunburst. I'm doomed. :lol:

My favorite color is probably the Sienna Burst, I thought they used to call that Heritage Cherry burst or something similar.

But my favorite guitar's color is my Band of Gypsies strat, just so different.

I'm a fool for cream colored telecasters( I dislike Strats, their over used). Black guitars are boring.

They're. It's a contraction for "they are." "Their" is to show ownership. Needed a period after "strats." Start new sentence with "they're."

I recently attended Orlando Calling, where I saw about 12 teles and only 1 strat on stage.


Thank you for correcting me.

Never did I think it would ever happen.. But I'm gonna have to say white. Ever since I can remember, I've never really been fond of white guitars. Don't know what it is, but I've always told myself up until this year I'd never own one. Until I found this beauty on CL for $120.

Now it's my favorite.. Again. :D

Schecter Tempest Custom.

I posted earlier that I was on a quest to find my perfect short-scale guitar.. This one didn't quite cut it. But only because I couldn't comfortably reach the higher frets without my thumb getting caught up on the heel of the neck (set neck)... That was the case, until I took a belt sander to the backside of the neck and removed the offending appendage.. :wink:

NOW it's my perfect short-scale guitar. The beast is back with a vengeance!! I freaking love this guitar!

Nah, the comma after "Strats" (which takes a capital S) is fine, though Jarvius might also have considered a semicolon, and a full-on colon would not be wrong either.

...We've had a few grammar lessons on the Forum recently. I so strongly suggest we don't go further with it: I for one have too many breakable panes in the glasshouse in which I live! :lol: :D

Cheers - C

My '88 American Standard is Grafitti Yellow. Never see anyone else playing one that color. Also dig that Orange paint that came out a while ago. And green metal flake. Hot rod colors.
