Which was called Daphne Blue while in fact it is more Surf Green in person. I have the same guitar only changed the pickups. Neck maybe is the fatest strat neck that is currently available, I love fat necks

is that a criticism or compliment?

I actually think the finish on these is really nice in person, and lovely colors. My only gripe with them is that they're strats.

Gotta check them out in person, but the colors in the photos look kinda amateurish.

i will tell you i noticed the green one on the wall from like way the fuck over on the other side of the store. and we don't have the newer style GIANT SQUARE BOX kinda layout. its the old school department style. i was like what the fuck is that a fernandez? because i didn't know what the color was. the red (to me) just looks like some squier variant of dakota or fiesta that isn't really either. and the l(i)liac one from far away looked grey. the photo looks light purple, but when you sit down with it next to your jeans the blue in them makes it look grey again. thing fucks with my eyes bigtime
