Members MarshallTim Posted June 16, 2005 Members Share Posted June 16, 2005 Does it have to be a Fender? An easy solution would be to go to Warmoth if you don't already know they make custom guitar parts and send them to you to build. They are licensed by Fender and if you do a HC search on them you will find great reviews and pics. If you want a Fender an easy way to go would be to buy a Fender Strat with a maple maple fretboard, and then have someone paint it shell pink for you.

I thought that too, but the Fender Custom Shop has made 'em. Though they still have a rosewood fretboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually very easy. I went to a car show in GR and found a guy that does amazing work on guitars. Where are you located? I'm sure someone on the forum will be able to tell you of a painter in your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fuzztone Posted June 16, 2005 Members Share Posted June 16, 2005 All the Shell Pink Strats that I have seen have a rosewood fretboard.Maybe you can just swap necks on two MIM strats and sell the other. Here is my Shell Pink Custom Shop strat: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tommy Tourbus Posted June 16, 2005 Members Share Posted June 16, 2005 You want to find a "50's Strat" model made by Fender in the 90's. It's now discontinued. Made In Japan, basswood body, was offered in Shell Pink, maple fretboard. They ran around $499 when they were available. I had the "60's Strat" version which was the same thing but with rosewood board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
