Hey guys, I'm thinkin' of getting an American Deluxe and I was thinking about the colour choices...I'd love to hear what you all think

I was thinking of the olympic pearl body...

Here are a few options I've been thinkin' about...

I prefer the maple neck over the rosewood...but strictly in terms of appearance what do you guys think is better? And also, I was considering buying the model with a maple neck and switching the pickguard with a white one...pretty much making it look like the olympic white maple american standard strat...any opinions?

Thanks!

I have an American Deluxe. I found the colors somewhat limited for what I wanted. I really like the new Sienna Sunburst, but the American Deluxe does not come in that color.

I ended up getting the Chrome silver body, with the black pearloid pick guard. It has black knobs, and black pickup covers. I chose the rosewood fingerboard. Now that I own it.....I really like that color combination.

It's all going to come down to what YOU like best. After all, you're paying for it, and will have to live with it.

I really like the Aged Cherry Burst, which is only available on the ash-bodied Deluxe.

If you like the Sienna Sunburst (I agree is an awesome color)...
Have you looked at the Tabacco Sunburst?
It has some color tones that are similar to the Sienna...
I bought the FMT... It is really nice color, I love it

That another color that I like, but the American Deluxe doesn't offer that color.
