Blonde with the copper pickgaurd. I've wanted one for about a year now. It was a tough decision as Fender makes so many great guitars at a great price point, unlike anyone in the market and with the ease of replacing parts (on cheaper models). I've had a bunch of Fenders over the years.

The V-neck is an incredible guitar for the money. The one i got seemed to be 2 pounds lighter than most of the strats i played, i'm guessing its right around 6.5 pounds.
Pickups are the samariums and i really like them, quieter than humbuckers. It sounds like a strat, compared to classic series or ej sigs or what ever , the samariums are not 100% "classic" strat, but they more than suffice in the tone array and noiseless arena.

the neck is one of the greatest profiles i've had, i must have gotten a smaller one, because it feels almost as half as big as another v-neck i played. not sure if Fender is doing A, B, C neck widths on these.

I'm just really impressed that the guitar is dressed as nice as it is for the cost. i've had 2500$ plus electrics that are in the same ballpark, i'm not going to lie and say its better than them, but it is def on par.

I was really contemplating the blonde with copper as it seems novel but would wonder what it looked like. not to sound qeer or anything, but when i'm holding it and look in the mirror, it looks great.

i think my next fender will be a 72' thinline in sunburst with a gold pickgaurd.

Hello Dzupp,

Best of luck with that new v-neck,
I don't own one{yet} but I've
played a few.

A real comfortable profile.

If Father Christmas is listening. :wink:

Cheers.
