Title: Anybody need a strat?
Post by: Martan on August 29, 2018, 12:12:24 AM
This one is only $10,000, and it has a sticker on it:

I was on the fence until I saw the giant SUPREME stenciled on the case.  I'm sold.

I think its the overall coordination that really brings it home for me. You just don't see that anymore these days.  ;)

If only this eye to detail was present in the craftsmanship of other fine instrument manufactures.

This or my spare kidney?

I'll hang on to the body parts for now. The white isn't quite my shade. Also I don't play heavy picks.

I like the white tone-enhancing paint on the neck. 

Everytime I try to picture someone playing this guitar (or carrying the case), I laugh out loud.  Clearly, this guitar has so much positive energy that you don't even have to touch it to thoroughly enjoy it.

I also can't help but think of that case as a Charlotte's Web kind of thing.   ;D

I didn't think about the practicality of a white fretboard. I'd have to wear gloves, what with all the sweat and grime I seem to bring to the table

I'll take this guitar instead: Gibson Red Widow Flying V (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gibson-Flying-V-Red-Widow-Custom-Shop-Electric-Guitar/183368293660)

The seller says:
"FEEL FREE TO SHOUT ME OFFERS"

This would be the easiest Strat to forge, ever. Yeah, $10,000 to a guy with a feedback score of "9". ::)

This reminds me of some rando kid's custom modified Civic for some reason.

The guitar does look kinda cool. I love the all white look. Plus a large CBS style headstock, that's win-win in my book. But in this case the lack of a 22nd fret is a dealbreaker for me. So I would have to decline.

There's a cheaper one on Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Supreme-x-Fender-Stratocaster-Guitar-With-G-G-Hard-Case-Brand-New-Unused/202393582093?_trkparms=aid%3D888007%26algo%3DDISC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D53210%26meid%3D6868a7c0dd8b4451ab01005c368e0366%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D2%26sd%3D222758449948%26itm%3D202393582093&_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982

Where can I get one of those bitchin Supreme stickers?  White's not bad to keep clean.  What IS a bitch is masking off all the frets and the inlays however...

THose purple inlays look awesome! Where's the matching pick? ;)

Aw damn.  It doesn't have a case you can read from the space station either so not worth anywhere near 10k.

Thanks though.  I picked up those inlays on ebay and they're purple plexi with a foil mirror on the back so although they're flush with the board they look like they're about 1/4" deep.  Much better luck than planning I'm afraid but I was happy with the end result.
