NSD! Surf Green content ...

NEW STRAT DAY!!!! Got this one from a buddy ... a Surf Green Classic 50's Series strat, rewired with Custom Shop '54 pickups! After he let me check it out I woke up thinking about that color ... didn't need but had to have.

That looks great. I'm really having a hard time deciding between Fiesta Red and Surf Green for my own Strat Build. Fiesta red is the iconic '50s colour. But Surf Green is super cool, and no less symbolic of the '50s.

That is really beautiful. Good job getting one of the coolest colors fender ever used! Every one of those I run across used is Sunburst, everyone always goes with the "safe" color.


I fret leveled and put new pickups on my old Peavey Predator this weekend- neck isn't quite what it used to be but it feels like a new guitar day for me too

That should be the picture in the dictionary by "Stratocaster" IMO. It's beautiful. When mine gets refinished, it's gonna look a lot like that.
