Both on hold - Roadworn Tele, modded Strat

munckee

For sale 2013 Roadworn telecaster in butterscotch with nitro finish.  Stored in a tatty Gator Vintage case which I can include if required.  Slight fret wear to a couple of frets. Would consider trades for fender (or tokai/G&L) teles, strats, poss Jaguar with a little money in either direction if required.

Looking for £675ish

Next is my home made/ruined surf guitar.  Started as a used squier standard in antique burst.  I have painted over the finish in surf green and covered in poly.  It is not a professional job and although it looks like I tried to relic where you can see through to the original finish I didn't just sanded too much while trying to get a really thin finish.  I then sanded the really pale neck and wiped on osmo polyx oil tints, again not a professional finish but looks darker and better than it did.

I replaced all the electrics with an axes r us loaded pickguard in parchment with 250k pots, better caps etc.  Came with Alnico II pickups which were too high output for me so I put the squier alnico pickups back in which sound loads better with the improved pots,

Have put aged kluson style tuners from Axecaster and vintage bent steel saddles from axes r us.and an extra spring in.

The jackplate screwholes could do with some attention as they come a bit loos reasonably frequently I just haven't got round to that yet.  Also some fret wear to high strings first few frets, could do with fret dress. Does not affect playability.

No idea how to price this, sounds loads better than when I got it, looks like a beater but a pleasure to play.  I have a fender gig bag that can be negotiated as part of the deal as well as the alnico II pickups.

Who knows say £200 including the gig bag, but not the alnico IIs,  but will consider offers.

I'm based near Portsmouth and would prefer collection, will deliver/meet up within reason or PM if you would like delivery, would need to be at your cost and risk.

Sorry should have said it is I think 2013 so the new style with black pickguard and much lighter relicing.  Will post pictures later

Bump will accept £700 as there is a guitar on here I would like to buy, subject to it still being available

A potential guitar has come up which would require the sale of my lovely roadworn, not a definite.  Looking for offers near to £700 including hard case.  There is a little bit of fret wear which I will try and take a decent picture of later, no effect on playing though.

Ideally collection from near Portsmouth.

If the other guitar falls through I would withdraw this from sale.  If interested let me know.

Have got a picture of the fretwear

Tried to get a better picture of the body to show the wear/aging on the paintwork but its not clear really, you can make out the grain through the paint and its got age lines on, looks really good.

edit - removed as better pictures above.

So if interested let me know, I have a hardcase so can post if needed but would would prefer collection.

@TTony ;
 Its this one!

munckee

Now properly up for sale rather than a feeler!

munckee

Any swaps/trades - US standard strat, mexican teles, japanese stuff?

munckee

surf strat now added!

munckee

Trades or offers? would swap both for a good strat, would also be interested in a cheap tele good enough to mod.

munckee

Wow a couple of LOLs, is that because I have my prices wrong or my modding attempts on the strat?

munckee

I think I'm going to hold the strat and ravage it for parts and sell/burn the rest (PM me with an offer if of interest and I will consider).  Would like to sell the roadworn though so I can build my new guitar so can someone buy/trade/steal please!  Offers welcome, happy to trade for a maple fboard strat but would like some cash my way in the deal.
