Re: Strat colour vote
Where'd you get the Korina? looks like the same plank as my Tele.
I really rate Korina as a tonewood.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: Strat colour vote
olympic white is the clear winner. So you're going with the orange then? In a parody of the last US election.... and not just the skin colour.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

To me that colour looks a lot like that old Gretsch you sold to Bender (I believe). Would look good on a strat with black binding and pickguard.
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.
