i recently bought a fender strat. and i am not sure what model it is? If you know please tell me. It has a humbucker bridge pickup along with a selector switch for the humbucker and it came standard with it. Has the premium rosewood fret board. And i would like to know what the color is called.

I'm not 100% sure of the name of the guitar, but I think that was called a "Stratocaster Special". These were MIM models from the mid-1990s and were essentially the forerunner of the MIM Deluxe models. Nice guitars.

I would call the color "blonde".

Nice strat. I think John C. is right about the color. It's blonde or maybe honey blonde, I've heard it called transparent blonde too.

I have the exact same guitar! I bought mine from a pawn shop for $280. It was the precursor to the Deluxe Series guitars. Rare it may be, incredibly valuable it is not......only worth what a similar year model mexican standard strat is worth. But don't be broken hearted......If yours is anything like mine, it is a tone monster! And the coil tap switch is a feature the new HSS Strats should all have. :D

ive always seen strats as more of a blues/soft rock kinda guitar, but with the setup its got and the bridge humbucker it has a really good heavy metal and hard rock tone to it and i LOVE it so far! :D i got mine at a pawn shop too with an amp for 300 bucks!

That looks to me like Sage Green Metallic from a few years back. I know they did that finish on MIMs. Not sure about USA though...

*sidenote*

Is that a Jason Voorhees replica machete I see on the wall there? ki ki ki ma ma ma :)
