i'm trying to decide between the two and i'm caught. i want the white body of the 60's but i also want the fingerboard of the 50's! i don't want the rosewood fingerboard but can any one state some comparisons between the two fingerboards?!

thanks heaps!

I agree. Fresh out of the box it looks bad, but I bet after a bit of playing time, dirts, oils, and dead skin will blacken them up and they'll look just fine.

How much time it would take depends on the person. Mine would get blackened quickly!

My other guitar is a Strat.

Yeah thanks. i had always been swinging towards the 60's one but i played a maple fingerboard on a strat recently and theyre just so much creamier and easier to get your fingers around on. i dont know, maybe i should just go for a standard white strat with a maple fingerboard.

just to change the subject, is there any particular preferences of you guys about strats? because there are just so many on the market and i wanna get one that feels and looks great.

thanks again guys

if you decide not to get a road worn the regular 50's Strat plays really nice too. Ive been playing a few the past couple nights at guitar center trying to decide between it and the road worn 50s tele.

Get both and swap the necks!

I like the 60s model myself a lot. I liked it so much, I purchased another 60s RW. So I got all the 60s RW models.
