Anyone think a gofundme account would help?

Dunno about a Gofundme account though.
Have you thought about hanging around near bars and offering sexual services to passing sailors? :shock:

I maybe a bit off topic here, but why don't we have a facepalm option available on the forum..?

You never know.
On my first visit to Venice Beach (Los Angeles), on the boardwalk, a 30ish year old hipster was sitting with a sign that said "If you give me money, I WILL buy beer with it"...and I donated solely based on his honesty.

Of course on gofundme...your want of a guitar will be on the same page as a mother trying to pay her child's Chemotherapy bill. So looking like a dick will have to not bother you.

The gofundme thing was a JOKE.
Just intrigued by an Ebony fingerboard on a strat. Ebony makes for a VERY nice smooth, fast fingerboard material.
Fender should offer ebony on other strats!

Hey!
I'm a former sailor! I wouldn't suggest it unless you wanna see sharks at the end of the plank. :evil:

I'll even throw in the plank so you can carve your guitar.

I can see doing that. But -- and this is probably really hypercritical --- but if the sign said "I WILL buy cigarettes with it", then I definitely would not ...

Okay.
Since I'm a long time Black Adder and Mr. Bean fan . . . you get a pass. I'll set the plank aside, but within reach. 8)

VERY sweet guitar!
Well,... hmmmm... can you think of $1500 worth of monthly financial obligations that you can just carelessly fall behind on?
That's what I always do 8)

Well....I'm gettin really close to pullin the trigger. I never thought I'd like an all black strat, but REALLY would like the ebony fingerbard. Maybe it would grow on me.
Here's another one also with fat 50 coils I'm considering:

There's a Carvin joke in there somewhere.

You can never tell. I've heard of worse things being posted on there. :roll:
Personally, I'm glad to see a contemporary Strat with an ebony board. I have two, a 1991 Ultra, and a partscaster with a 1994 Ultra neck. Like you, I don't care for all black, but all white is awesome! I'd love an arctic white with ebony board.
