Hey, I have been thinking about making a "clone" of Lincoln Brewster's guitar (color, tone, etc.), but I don't know what color it is!

Here is his artist page on Fender:

And here is a video of him playing the guitar:

Let me know if you have an idea, thanks! :)

Thanks. Just as some more info about the guitar, it is a "'57 Reissue Limited Edition Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster". I don't know if that might make a difference, but it might (based on the colors available during that year).

I actually found out what it is, it's "aztec gold"!

I found it under the FAQ on Lincoln Brewster's website:

What kind of guitars are you playing?
I am currently playing two 1957 reissue custom shop heavy relic Fender Stratocasters. The main one I play is aztec gold and was built for me by Mike Eldred and the boys at the custom Fender shop. (Thanks guys!) The sunburst I actually bought at Guitar Center. I was looking for a backup and just stumbled across it one day. I would say the main difference between the two is the gold guitar has an ash body and the sunburst had alder body. They both have DiMarzio virtual vintage pickups (area 61 on the bridge, area 58 on the neck). The back tone pot is wired only to the bridge pick up. I usually roll this tone pot back to 6. That usually makes the guitar sound a litter fatter while retaining the characteristics of the single coil pickup. The middle pick up has no tone pot and the neck pickup is wired to the middle tone pot. Before I got the two heavy relic Strats I played an Eric Johnson model for about a year and a half. I still have it and do recording with it fairly often.
