Hope everyone had a marvelous Christmas and are getting ready for an awesome new year. Went "looking" today for a backplate for my American Standard. Prior owner upgraded pick guard to pearloid white, but left original white backplate on. While looking ... get ready, drum roll ... my wife says, "Hey look at this cool guitar, price looks good too" ... can you say I will be back Monday for this baby? She found a pre loved MIM white relic'd strat, for about $349 ... neck was unfinished maple and incredibly fast. Fairly light for a MIM and the "white wash" finish was cool. Otherwise, she was impressed with the satin Nitro American Standard, $799 but negotiable. I can sense a new purchase coming up ... with wife's approval, Am I lucky or what? :lol:

Absolutely!

It's actually the Green Iguana...but I think I might know why you have the color Blue on your mind!
