Well, I got another new guitar today. Went over GC and they took off another $100 on top of the already reduced rebate price of $899 down to $799. That is pretty cool, an American Standard for less than the price of a American Special!!! :) I decided on the Charcoal Frost with Rosewood. I was debating between the maple and rosewood. Did I choose good? Man, this is my third guitar in within a month, First the American Special Strat, then a Gibson R8 les paul VOS and now a American Standard Strat. Thanks Fender for the $100 rebate! Keep it coming :D My BDay is in January...would you send me a BDay coupon to purchase another American Strat? :)

Nice Strat, what did they charge for the case? They always hit me with that stupid line, "Oh , the case is extra man, it don't come with it" That's when I walk out

Price is with the case. Tell those Aholes that Fender ships these guitars with the case as stated in the description/specs and no extra charge for it. They can knock off the price, less the case but they cannot add price for the case. That is cheating/illegal. GC did this to you? Call the manager or the main office and complain.

Very nice, Bluesguitar65!

That looks like a particularly nice rosewood board, man - good call!

Yea, the rosewood on this guitar was what drew me to it over the maple counterpart.

Normally I favor maple, but that is a nice piece of rosewood...and works very well with the body color.

Congrats on the new addition!

(And right-on about the case!)

That's sick!
Love the color.
Am spcl and R8, that's a huge tonal
Palate coverage you got there.
Next, get a telecaster.

I took more pics, hopefully better ones to show the color better. No flash used in these photos.

Great looking Strat mate.
Artistic shot looks good too, a study of a man deeply absorbed in his work. 8)

Beautiful color/combo. One of my favorites. I took advantage too and I picked up 2 new strats this week an Olympic White/Maple American Standard and a Mexican Standard HSS in Lake Placed Blue/Rosewood. Nice amps too!!

Its the 15 watt. The 40 watt sounded super, but it was a bit too loud for what I need. Yes, indeed. Sweet amps.
