Help! Pics of shell pink Strat with gold hardware, tort pickguard? Done. Sort of.

Not finding any. Is that because it would be a crime against humanity?

Or, maybe even lighter than shell pink. Think of a very light pink that at first glance you might mistake for a Mary Kaye.

I can find shell pick and tort but, none with gold hardware. Have this, still don't like the combo of trans blue, tort and gold.

Usually, I really like tort. Not so much on this guitar.
 
If there is a factory pink, tort, gold strat it's probably really rare. Trying to imagine it and image in my mind doesn't look so good. Pink tort chrome/nickle looks hot though. Did you see the Player's Edition Strat with tort and gold hardware? It's red though.

"Pink tort chrome/nickle looks hot though."

Agree.

"Did you see the Player's Edition Strat with tort and gold hardware? It's red though."

Yes. It's a step in the right direction. I don't hate it as much as the trans blue.
 
Provided yr just looking to refin your existing strat, black is probably the move that (while super boring) is gonna land you the least potentially ridiculous result. If you’re looking to refin and swap the guard, I’d go white/white or black/black and lean into the Showbiz vibe and poach the look of a super campy Gretsch.

If you don’t love the strat and are considering swapping everything because deep down you want a pink strat that doesn’t look like the decor in a discount bordello, both CME and MF/GC have exclusive runs of the MIM Player Strats in shell pink.

Shell pink and mint is gorgeous.

Nicely done! Looks like my grandma’s bathroom! There should be some gold cherub decals on it too.

Heh. I dig pink stuff. I own a shell pink t-style guitar. Our Christmas tree is pink. Our bathroom is painted pink. I just don’t dig that pink + gold + tort thing. Needs the white/mint/parchment to smooth it out like whipped cream on a strawberry shake.

Uh, I think he said "shell pink" not "Pepto-Bismol Pink"... :wink:

Uhhh, I think I only have limited options on this configurator, but I agree, that pink is horrible.

Edit: I forgot that Halo let's you upload Custom Graphics, so I uploaded a blank color, presto magnifico.
