It's spectacular, but ... it's not a Strat. Maybe a Showmaster? _________________ "I can't listen to Wagner that much. I start getting the urge to conquer Poland." -- Woody Allen |

| Not a typical stroatocaster, but very nice paint. There is a lot of depth to it. |

There's a lot of really cool stuff on your website. I particularly like this one:
And since I have a Tele Deluxe, I have a soft spot for this model:
So...
Tell us about the Fender Forum member discount...

Thanks, yea I really like that Pink Flake deluxe. I did that for a guy whos in a pretty well known band....don't remmeber the name of it tho haha, it was actually sent to me by the guys g/f then she gave it to him as a gift before going on tour.
As for a discount, if you check out my prices page their already very very competitive. I would love to do some more Fenders tho, especially some more vintage colors like Taos Turquoise, Shell Pink, Surf Green, Daphne blue, etc. _________________ www.SimsCustomShop.com |

Oh man - too cool! Lotta skilful masking going on there, I bet!
Does the customer have a motorcycle? A matching paint job on the tank would be the ultimate!
Don't know if you saw it, Patrick, but there has been some interest round here in you chrome finish too...

PS Where does the selector switch go? |

Two volumes, one tone, no selector would be my bet. Next in line would be push/pulls operating on/off. _________________
