    Default Oh that Longing for a White Strat

    http://imagehost.vendio.com/bin/view...2strat075.jpg#

    this is what I've been looking for, but no money to buy a new toy.:

    There is something that is just magical about a white Strat with maple fret board.

    Plus, white guitars don't show fingermarks. But, oh my eyes. That guy has a thing or two to learn about contrast control

    GG, I just love white Strats, doesn't matter if they are Squier or Fender. I've been gassin for a lot of guitars lately, I wish I could make a living buying guitars. It's like an addiction and they are my daily fix.

    I am pretty well over my Gassin for guitars. I currently have 15 and most of them are unplayed. I no way rival Spudman, but I am seriously thinking of downsizing. It is amazing though I bought my 68 CIJ (Crafted in Japan) Vintage white w maple board back in 96 and it is going to be a keeper. I really don't favour the 7.5 radius on the neck but I just can't get over how pretty it is. I also have the Deluxe and a Blizzard Pearl 60th Ann. Strat that is almost white. I guess Mary Kaye and Hendrix had it right. White Strats Rock!
    I don't know if you are familiar with the Mary Kaye guitar? It is a Blonde/white/maple with gold hardware Strat, that she is pictured playing. Apparently she never played or owned a white guitar. It was handed to her by a Fender rep for a photo shoot, advertising Fender amps at the NAMM show in 1956. They took the guitar back and it wasn't until 2003 that they presented her with an official namesake guitar. It is valued as one of the most collectible Strats on the planet. The only one that even comes close is the original 1954 prototype Strat.
    The guitar was always known as the Mary Kaye style.

    I like the guitar, but something about the reverse headstock that doesn't attract me. I don't know what it is, but it never has done anything for me. Is the reverse headstock suppose to represent or imitate something?

    Zman, I had to save this picture for my collection I hope you don`t mind.

    I`ve seen some Deluxe hotrods in different colors now, I couldn`t tell the size of the amp by the pic. Looks really great in brown tolex. My next small amp will be something in that shade.
