Hi.

Is there a way to buy a production line strat, like american elite, with a custom colour?
I looked at custom shop catalog and all the base models were like vintage 60 and so on :D .

Thank you in advance.

The US Elites as well as the rest of American-made Fender production lines have their own unique color specifications which change throughout the years. In some exceptional cases custom colours are offered in the form of limited edition or factory special runs.

Well then I have two options. Either buy one now and decide later if I wanna refinish it or wait for next year to see if they offer a red one which with this new CITES limitation for rosewood doesn't sound like a good idea.

The Custom Shop builds whatever you want. Prices are prohibitive for many of us, therefore you should fill your pockets with enough bucks before ordering a Masterbuilt instrument.

So you've 3 choices:

1). buying an Elite Strat and keeping it stock

2). waiting a little more until the next colour change

3). ordering a Masterbuilt Elite from the CS

The third choice is much expensive.

Of course there's a Mod Shop that allows designing your own guitar.
