Tyler Bryant (that cool cat up there ^ 8) ) uses that AWESOME pink guitar (which you know that the chicks dig) so I would definitely go with that color... probably with a Black racing stripe going up the middle like on the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Sig. Oh, and I would NOT relic it (I never really warmed up to the idea of strats being made to look old :roll: )

As for specs:

I would base it on a Fender Vintage Hot Rod '62 Strat with the only real difference being that the the Tone 2 knob would control the tone for both the bridge AND middle pickup.

*edit: AND ONE MORE THING (I'm having way too much fun with this :lol: ) I would absolutely, without a doubt have me name (or some cool stage name that I would have) inlayed on the frets because come one, what's cooler that having your name written in pearl or abalone on the neck of your guitar.

IMHO the pink guitar has nothing to do with what the 'chicks dig'. Chicks dig cute. Guitar guys dig 'players'...of course....if they happen look like Orianthi, all the better.

Lol I just like pink guitars. Correction: I like shell pink strats. When you get into those hot pink Daisy Rock catastrophes, its just bad :roll:

But a dude that can wear a pink guitar with pride is a dude who a.) is confident and b.) doesnt give a !@#$ what other people think :lol:

2" nut, or 1 7/8 at least.

compound or flat board, maple

big frets

c shaped neck

ash body in either solid or trans white (or maybe a really plasticy surf green)

white plastics

am std or am deluxe pickups, pots etc

locking tuners, maybe a hardtail, chrome or nickel.

Left hand.

My strat neck is good, but I'd still rather it was more like a classical.

I've seen Midge Ure, of the 80's band Ultravox, playing a pink guitar duirng one of the UK's Prince's Trust Concerts. The interest certainly predates yours. :wink:
