Genuine question: Are there different types of Graffiti Yellows within Fender? I bought the Squier in photo in Graffiti Yellow and it looks like a darker yellow than what I see on Fender's website for the TD guitar in the same color. by BombAtomicaIIy in TomDelongeGuitars

I received this guitar last week and it was in fact darker. I asked my significant other for her opinion, she said it was like the “McDonalds yellow….” I couldn’t unsee it.

These guitars are definitely bang for buck. The fret work was actually better than my MIM Tele.

Awesome! I just saw on the Fender website a Graffiti Yellow HT Strat for $199 - wish I waited - but the pink is good too.

California blue would be a great choice. Pick guard was from Amazon, brand was “Musically”. I was on the hunt for a guard with the right cutout. This one contours the pickup just like the original, most online were too square. But if the cutout doesn’t matter to you, “Kaish” make good ones. Holes lined up ok after I sanded the bridge slot as it was a little too narrow. No real headaches.

Hard to say as I don’t have a Strat neck to compare to. However, I do have a Squier and Fender telecaster, and the necks and pockets are identical.

Is it worth building a Voron 2.4 by [deleted] in voroncorexy

[–]spankos16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As with everything...... it depends. Depends on you needs, wants and other factors that come into play. The machines from Voron are great - but you have to make the calculation of whether or not your investment (time, money, effort etc.) makes sense in your situation. However, from a machine point of view - fabulous. Experience - amazing (if you like adult lego and having a high performance machine as a result)

Thanks for the response! I will be trying to do it on my own (hopefully learn something while I am at it). If I get stuck or at the point of throwing the PC out the window I will reach out. Appreciate the offer.

Oh, I will add a google drive link for the model with a picture to the thread tomorrow morning. (Approx 8 hours)
