2016 Fender Custom Shop '64 Strat Relic

I've just recently part-exchanged my Gibson R4 on the forum for a superb and totally mint 2016 Fender Custom Shop '64 Strat Relic.

I already have a very similar 1960 CS Strat and have decided I'm going to stick with it, so the '64 has hardly been out of the case even though it's a thing of beauty. 8)

Here's a link to the original ad with the previous owner's description and to the photos that accompanied it (hope he doesn't mind):

Looking for £2500 (In Belfast but happy to courier).

Love the wood figuring combined with the tort guard - that's a beaut.

That is gorgeous. Would you consider a (nice!?) discount for a NI sale?

Nice quartersawn neck too.  There's some great-looking timber in that guitar.

It really is a beautiful looking and sounding instrument, very resonant and wonderful to play. It may prove more difficult to part with than I first thought...

My guitar originally and it was sold to raise money. I was very sad to let it go. It’s light, it’s resonant and it looks fantastic. Even my missus who hates sunburst guitars thought it was a stunner. You’ve also got the ancho poblano pickups- the best Fender have made since the 60s in my view

Light you say... what’s the actual weight, do you recall?

Jeebas

Just checked it on the scales, it's 3.2kg or just over 7lbs.

You’ve played the guitar, Nigel.

Ah so I have. Very nice as I recall.
