Ok, settle down Skip. I hope we're not replacing any form of real therapy that you might need in your life at this point.

They only come in rosewood though. Pastel colours look so much better with maple.

I would fight you bare fisted.

I think that rosewood looks fabulous against a sonic blue or daphne blue guitar.

Nope. Still prefer maple. I would steal your tuners for that strat though.

Im not saying rosewood looks bad. I've just always had a thing for maple. It's one of those lifelong things. My first real exposure to a guitar was at about 8 or 9 years old. A friend of my dad always had a CAR strat with a maple neck sitting in a corner of their living room. Love at first sight.

I love me some Maple, don't get me wrong, but a Mustang looks all wrong with it in my opinion.

If you painted it black I might like it.

Believe me, I WANTED to refinish it. so bad. But once I got the proper neck on it I couldn't dare to refinish a vintage finish. I'm CONTENT with how it is.

I know what you're saying, but I can imagine how hot it would look if it was black and it's.. very hot.
