I'll have to disagree. The Strat became perfect the day they introduced the custom colors. (Personally, I count that as 1958, for mysterious but completely safe & legal reasons.) :wink:

Happy birthday, Trem Patent US2741146A!

Ditto on both points. As someone who spends most of his working day wrestling CAD Software to do what I want it to do I think it is a great shame that the art of fine drawing production is a thing of the past.

Granted I can probably do in a day what it would have taken a whole drawing office a week in the past but I still think hand drawn documents are nicer to look at.
