WTB: Relic CS Strat/telecaster (colour over 3TSB)

UncleBiff

I've been looking for a while now and I can't find exactly what I'm looking for anywhere. I love this strat (pic link below), but want a tele. Anyone got one/seen one/ heard of something? Ideally I want a relic colour over a 3TSB but would consider just a relic colour if its nice.

Would consider a Strat too.

it's not for sale sorry - but I got this from Coda a couple of year ago, great guitar. Obviously it divides opinion. 

CS '52 tele - heavy relic shell pink over SB.

I’ve seen both of those. Hate the black scratch plate on the pink Strat and would want standard Tele pickup layout on a Tele. I have been looking at a few like this, thinking I could change bits but if you’re paying that sort of money and then changing scratch plates and pickups it seems a bit silly. I’m sure something perfect is out there somewhere!

I’ve a mate who has one of these that I know he’s been considering letting go. Depends if you are after a cs, partscaster etc?

There's a strat in Manchester on Facebook market place (no connection to me ) it's a lake placid blue over sunburst 60's relic hss ..don't know if that's any good to you but it looks cool .

That’s a lad I know. I’m tempted myself. Wesley’s a fantastic player and straight as they come. Deal with confidence. 

UncleBiff

Thanks for the ideas. Nothing ticking all the boxes yet but I’ll keep looking!

UncleBiff

Still looking! Considering Strats now too. Are there any smaller dealers that aren’t obvious that anyone knows out there? I’m keeping an eye on the big boys web sites.

Saw that one come up today. Didn’t want seafoam green as my jazzmaster is that colour. Unless I trade in my jazzmaster for a different one too?

That pink on SB colour combo reminds me of a licorice allsort.

That Relic at Coda is heavy in more senses than one - it weighs 8lbs 10oz and must be vying for the heaviest Relic ever title!

Still looking!
