I have been playing with theses for about a year and finally ordered one today.  In sunburst.  My arthritis has made these feel a lot nicer to me theses days.

Not my favorite Fender.....but hey....it's a Fender!

Well it is not a real Fender, like the tele, but it does have the improvements missing from the strat experiment. ;)

If.  IF I was going to try a Fander, that's the one.  AM. Vintage or Classic.  

Man, That thang has surfin' USA look to it, A-man!

I like the looks of that one Doc (izzat you Dale?) Humbuckers as well, neater than the classic model with singles.

Dale,

Not the one for me, but always thought it was cool.  And I'm with Aaron.  Coolest of all in Seafoam Green.

DreamTheaterRules — Aug 15, 2008Dale,

Of the original colors, I'd go with either Inca Silver or Lake Placid Blue.  In fact, I have a strat body in Lake Placid Blue that's killing time in a cardboard box... need to get some time for that one...  
The funny thing is, of the original colors, the only one standard was 3-tone sunburst--what we now think of as a more expensive color.  In the 60's Fender charged 5% more for solid colors.  More info here: http://www.fenderjaguar.net/vintage.htm

yeah, Lake Placid Blue would be cool too, for sure.  Something about that Sea Foam Green though... sort of like, it's NOT pretty, but it's funky.  Or maybe I just like it because Jeff Beck does.

Definitely Sea Foam Green!!!

We have a Jeff Beck Strat in Sea Foam Green at the shop I work at.  I dig that color soooo much on a Strat.

Well, as a color blind (partially) guy the surf green just makes me want to gag!   :exclamation

I like both the white and sunburst. My hands like it the most.  Soon I will be playing short scale bass I fear.  

Let's face it boys.  We all love nearly all guitars. We just love some more.  I love LP's and Tele's but my hands are not with them right now.
