Hey, fella, almost all the members of this discussion board are proud homosexuals. Thats probably why everyone likes pink guitars so much.

Welcome!
lol'd so hard

yes, much lolz were had.

It's not Barbie pink, jbuonacc... it's '50s refrigerator pink, same kinda vibe as daphne blue to me.

... but it's pink.

there is no cool pink.

unless you're a proud homosexual, i guess.

It's not often I bother with any sort of noob conversation, but noob you are unfortunately completely incorrect.
If you stick around here you might become enlightened someday.

I'm confident enough in my manlyness and sexuallity to rock a pink guitar.
Maybe it's a sign of your insecurity?

Voted for Sonic Blue as soon as I saw the thread title. Seems a complete no-brainer though Seafoam Green, Shell Pink etc. would all work too.

For the record, I would give Fiesta Red a big thumbs down....but to each their own. That said, Dakota Red/tort/maple can be an ace combo:

I like the pastel colored Fenders. Yes, including shell pink.

Now I just need one on Daphne Blue...

Fiesta red with a mint guard is usually the best colour of anything.

it is.

i am tempted to check out the squier jag's in july as there is the seafoam green, qc for squier has been really good, so if it holds up on the offset lineup, it might be worth the venture.

the pastel colours always leave me a bit flat though, the jag/jm bodies have such nice lines and curves that really show off metallic and sunburst paint, where as the solid colours just look so uniform. With that said, i have most of the AVRI upgrade stuff on hand, so it would save a lot of time and money converting the squier over, i think i just need one pickup, and the claws/covers.

I'm sexually attracted to the maple shell pink jag.

I was never a big fan of the shell pink before today.

But with maple that thing is hot as fuck.

...and then I saw Phil O'Keefe's pink MM... helloooo!

I totally dig them pastel shades w/ maple.

Though under certain circumstances, Shell Pink with a maple neck is the DUH of the century.*

*Unlike my previous poast where I felt compelled to give the body away, I've since decided to keep it, somehow find a way to buy a Warmoth baritone maple neck, and add a neck pickup (not decided which one yet).

Natural finish body. An organic look.
