Getting a new strat! But which neck?

[lex666]

Hey guys,

My birthday is coming up and I decided to treat myself to a new axe. I've been drooling over a Fender American Deluxe Strat in HSS. I know I want the 3 tone suburst color, but can't decide on a maple or rosewood neck. I personally like the way maple looks and feels, but I already have a MIM strat with a maple neck. Should I get the rosewood? I like how it will match the 3 tone sunburst. But I have other guitars with a humbucker and rosewood fretboards. But maple looks so classic...

ARRGGH!! Please help me decide!! Which would you choose and why?

Since you already have both maple and rosewood, why not try ebony? It's a couple bucks more than the regular HSS but worth it. I have the blue one and it rocks!

Maple sounds like the favorite. I like maple on strats too. I think thats what I'll go for...
