Members HGS Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 A white Fender Stratocaster with a maple fretboard or one with a rosewood fretboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vintage clubber Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 maple...the rosewood would look killer with a mint or red tortoise pickguard though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BydoEmpire Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 I'm partial to rosewood fretboards, but maple on olympic white looks better to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members humbuckerstrat Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 I would prefer the white one with the rosewood board if it had a humbucker in the bridge. And I would prefer the one with the maple board if it had a six-screw trem, then it would look like a Jimmie Vaughan Strat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NHLfan2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 I will almost always pick maple necks. And on the white one, if you threw a black pickguard or even a tort on there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blingdogg Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 ^Yeah I have a white strat with maple neck and a tort pickguard. She's so fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Stoneball Jack Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 The maple looks better with all white but i think rosewood would look better if you had a cream pickgaurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ashasha Posted July 10, 2010 Members Share Posted July 10, 2010 I've got one that has yellowed a bit over the years that has a rosewood fretboard. I also replaced the pickguard with tort so it's kind of nice to see the original again. I'd pick the maple 9 out of 10 times though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members truckdub Posted July 11, 2010 Members Share Posted July 11, 2010 I waver back and forth on this. I voted for the rosewood but could be very happy with the maple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members stormin1155 Posted July 11, 2010 Members Share Posted July 11, 2010 The white and maple is hot. Sort of reminds me of a hot looking nurse in a white uniform with light colored stockings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
