Not normally a big fan of Shell Pink but she sure is purdy.

Congratulations, TT6!

Pretty sweet guitar. I think I could live with that color, one that I don't currently possess.

Thanks! I looked for a Shell Pink American strat for about 10 years before I found got this one. It seems like you rarely see this color except on a Custom Shop Strat or an import from Japan or Mexico.Even those you don't see that often.

I love the look of my Jazzmaster because of its color (Trans Blue) and configuration, BUT I've gotta say that a STRAT has an unspoken appeal no matter what color it is, and this SHELL PINK STRAT is a mighty fine example of that.

Beautiful guitar. Old US guys remember the old cars in shell pink. I always liked the cars, and I like the guitar. Well done. :D

Love it, love it, love it. I snagged a Surf Green one (in another thread on this forum) and I'm resisting the urge for a second one in Shell Pink. The level of quality that Fender is pumping out is truly amazing considering the volume of instruments they manufacture. Mine is pretty much flawless as I'm sure yours is. Enjoy!
