Do any of the new Strats come with a neck colour like this?

Thanks

The American Deluxe V-neck is close.. not quite as dark but more so than a std maple neck. Other than that maybe one of the relic finishes

dark necks seem so hard to find. you could always order a dark neck through warmoth. fender lets warmoth make bodies and necks to the same specs as fenders so it would look like a fender neck just without the logo.

Take a look at a Classic 50's Strat. They typically have a tinted neck which is darker or more gold than most necks. My Mark Knopfler Artist Series Strat has a deeper golden color on the back side of the neck.

Never mind the neck. That's the body color on the Buddy Guy Strat we've been talking about elsewhere. What's the source of the photo?

Looks like an Yngwie Strat.

It's on good ol' ebay in the UK. I've been looking for a neck like that for a long time. The listing says that the neck has been laquered again, but I guess that deep golden colour is due to the ageing of the wood, which cannot be replicated in a new guitar no matter what ageing effect you apply to it...

That tells us something about the finish as well.

That is the color neck I want for my deluxe tangerine body! One day....

Here it is on my '66 Time Machine... made in 2004, so it is possible for the finish to look that way from the outset...
