Thanks but I think I'll keep it.

I bought that Surf Green Classic 50s on what was supposed to be a strings only trip to a local independent guitar store. It was one of those oh, oooooo, I must have that moments. G.A.S. wins again.

Back when Fender introduced the Rosewood Teles they made 2 Rosewood Strat prototypes apparently only one is accounted for but it is incredibly beautiful,they should seriously consider producing it,it would be a surefire best seller.

With just a few exceptions, my fave colour on a Strat is usually the last Strat I looked at..

I do have a dream though of a Strat in (Gibson) Pelham Blue..

This thread seems familiar - is it duplicated elsewhere? I feel sure I've written this post before..

I've yet to own a strat, but I'm thinking that my first one will be pale sky blue...



However, that could easily change.

I've been looking Claptons 'Blackie' and Gilmours 'Black Strat' too much

Not my only one but my only black one..... Mike

Burgandy mist is great. I saw a late 60s jag in Burgandhy mist that was to die for.

I like silvers too. And pewter and blacks with black pickguard and knobs. Midnight wine, candy cola and translucent red are awesome too. I really love the Charvel colors too.

my dream guitar would be a fender surf green /maple with duncan jeff beck humbucker .

or i would have like fender to make HSS highway one with maple fingerboard ... theyre all rosewood

right now i have a hss strat maple but its black ... i like it tho :)

The white Strat that Hendrix played in Woodstock has always attracted me. The Olympic white, maple neck and w/b/w pickguard was like an religious icon to me. I thought that would be the Strat that I would end up until I saw the American Deluxe in Vintage White. The color is creamy like an aged white Strat. The pickguard is an exquisite pearloid/w/b/w and she's topped off with a silver embossed Fender logo on the headstock. It was just too sexy to pass up so I got that instead.

I've always liked the 3-tone sunburst best.

Other favorites: Candy Apple Red, Shoreline Gold, Inca Silver

3-color sunburst (maple or rosewood), sienna sunburst (maple), lake placid blue (rosewood)....in that order
