Just watched the "Rockers" movie and loved Stratocaster used.
The color and the large headstock. But tried looking in the product page can't find it there...
Any body knows what model it is? And what color description?

:D

Hi John: I haven't seen the film so I may be miles off target here. But are you talking about this Strat?

If so, that one was given away as a prize on this very website. It was won by a gentleman who immediately sold it on Ebay, much to the annoyance of many Forum users...

Cheers - C

Too bad Fender can't prevent you from immediately selling something you win.

Thanks Ceri, this Strat is beautiful...But it's different.
It's a burst color but a darker shade and you can see the wood patterns in the lighter shade ( middle portion). It has maple neck and large headstock. Can't seem to see if its an American made but it's a beauty :shock:
Trying to look for photos in the net but can't find one. If I encounter one I'll post the link.
Thanks!

Hi torndaoclaw: that was the view of many people here at the time.

But it seemed to me that if the guy didn't want it then by putting it on Ebay all those that said they did want it badly got a second crack of the whip. I was surprised how undelighted they seemed by that opportunity.

Anyhow: it's obviously not the guitar in this movie after all. I also have been failing to find photos of that one.

Ah well: I think I'll go buy a guitar instead... More - later!

Cheers - C
