Guitar clearout

lysander · December 2023

The guitar collection is getting too large again and needs trimming.
All of these play very well, but many of those are modded in some way / projects and priced accordingly.
Collection in SE23 only. Anyone interested in buying more than one will get priority.

Ibanez AZ242 premium : £450 Great guitar, excellent neck. Has had a lot of play time but the frets being SS are pretty much as new. A few small scratches here and there. I replaced the Dynaswitch system and pickups that I really didn't like by a series/parallel/split wiring, and Alegree old timer "scoop" pickups which are very close to T tops and split very well. Original electronics including switches and pickups will be included. Niggles : bridge pickup slightly titled towards the bridge, the foam just needs a bit of adjusting.
Revelation RFT DLX : £200. Immaculate fit ad inish and fretwork, these guys know what they are doing. I replaced the original pickups - which were horrible - by some Alegree Sea Smoke P90s which are by themselves nearly worth the asking price. Original pickups included if you really want them. Niggles : it's very heavy
The Paul build : £250. GSPBasses build with mahogany body and neck, ebony fretboard, modern countours, stainless steel frets, 43mm earvana nut, fairly chunky neck, finished in shellac by myself. Active GFS pickups, Gotoh hardware including locking tuners. Niggles: the neck pickup alignement is slightly off for pickup poles ( not an issue with actives ), a few scratches, the earvana nut is OK but a normal nut would be better IMO
Vintage ICON series strats : £150 for the lot of two ( SSS + HSS ). The SSS is mostly stock though I replaced the rusty saddles ( originals ones included ), I also gave it a fret dress which it badly needed, now plays well with medium low action and smooth frets.
The HSS was a bit of a project, it was originally coated in at least a mm of plastic finish on top of a dodgy relic job - I stripped it and refinished in another dodgy relic ( blue on top of copper ). It's not master custom shop level but has its charm if you're into it. Also had a fret fress by myself and plays well with medium low action and smooth frets.
Fender Mexican Tele - was initially noiseless but that was a bit pants, now has Alegree pickups. Locking tuners, very nicely figured Pau Ferro fretboard, 12 inch radius, was fret dressed by Feline guitars a few years ago and barely any wear since then. £450
