I have an itch for a yellow, Fender style graffiti yellow guitar with a maple fretboard.

Not buttercream.....yellow....and S-S-S....

I have seen

And I'd be interested if someone told me I could get a maple fretboard neck and slap in there...

You could buy the body (and whatever else you like) from https://www.warmoth.com/. That would fit whatever Squier or Fender neck you source and give you control over wood choice, routing, and color.

Looks like that graffiti yellow affinity was a non-us version. There are a few on ebay but for like $400 coming from Japan

Here's one someone already did a partscaster job on https://reverb.com/item/38882054-squier ... artscaster

@uwmcscott I seent that one...
I was kinda looking to buy something already ready to go...

Yes Fender has Squiers that were released over seas in yellow.
Some of them are not too bad of a price..
Thats one of them in my original post.

Search amazon for "yellow guitar" - there's a handful of no-name Chenders out there in banana yellow. I don't think we can post amazon links here but check out the "DOLMER"

or the "Angelbee:

But really, Sweetwater and AMS both have some really solid product search filters, I think you can choose the color on there among almost every other aspect of what you might have as criteria for a search.
I dunno about graffiti yellow specifically but I think Fender/Squier, Jackson, Charvel and maybe Kramer have released some more colorful varieties of strat styles in the last year or two and I know they had some nice yellows.

It has the wide thin neck or I would have it on my list. I like their wide fat necks but they really aren't that wide or fat.

After re-reading my post, let me clarify that it is listed for pre-order; I do not have it pre-ordered! I like to keep multiple wish lists. The wide thin neck increases my interest in it.

Yeah my preference for a bigger neck is always a minority thing...

Sorry Yellow and Real Amber guitars seem to be scarce. I remember Zonkers had a Yellow strat on the old forum. That was real purty.
