By thunder this thing is fun. Makes me happy just looking at it. The neck is effortless, and the trem works a treat. Pickups are D-Zone and Air Norton.

The finish is a factory one-off. Don’t know what the actual name is but Estheroid said candy floss and that’s good enough for me.

Now looking for an MXR micro flanger.

I used to have a Maverick F1 years back.

See, this is stuff I missed first time round. My guitar teech has already commented that it looks like CC Deville’s guitar!

Man you’re in for a ton of idiotic fun when you go down that rabbit hole

I used to have an F3 HT was a real fun guitar.

These were highly rated, hngd!

Love the colour but they missed a trick not using a maple fretboard

Gorgeous! I've always kind of wanted a Maverick despite the fact that I know I don't get on with the skinny neck.

Very nice! The shop down the road from me still has a few Mavericks. Always like the volume/tone pot idea.

That is so cool, congratulations! Funnily enough I was looking at Mavericks on eBay the other day. I love that colour, it looks wicked. @hollywoodrox is going to be all over that

I thought it would take a bit of getting used to, but it was really comfortable straight away. I suppose my other guitars all have 60’s style necks - if I’d been used to baseball bats it might have been a bit of a jolt.

I see what you’re saying - it would need to be quite dark maple though, roasted maybe.

When you said that, it was like "talk dirty to me"

Well, can't see me liking another guitar more on the internet today. HNGD!

Super, i love me a maverick (i own 6 of the dam things) HNGD

Not quite as 80's neo pink but here's an f3 i refinish a few years back in shell pink

think i picked this one up from cashgen for £95, it was silver and a little grubby but cleaned up nice.

Noisy's new look...

I don’t know how much truth is in it but back in the mid to late 90’s a chap that ran a music shop in Cleethorpes claimed to be responsible in some manner for Mavericks design. 

noisepolluter

That is a distinctive look, to be sure, but not one I feel I could carry off while still retaining my natural gravitas.

Ding dong! That’s how shell pink should be done.

This was mine.
