SOLD - 2012 USA Standard Strat in Sienna Sunburst, Maple Fretboard

DDtB

*edit again*

Just impulse purchased something so this one definitely has to go to fund it.  

Price reduced.    How does £900 ono collected sound?  it's getting sold somewhere to someone now, so make me an offer if you're interested. Want it gone by the end of March to cover the credit card bill I've just generated!! lol

Based in Glasgow but happy to meet within reasonable distances in Central Scotland etc obvs.

Hi folks.

Something has popped up in the sales corner that I'd love and doubt it'll hang around, so hastily throwing this ad up to see if anyone fancies the Strat I'd need to sell to fund what I'm after. If the target sells in the meantime I'll pull this ad and keep the strat.  Very much an impulse decision being made here today, life's too short and all that!

Standard USA Strat with custom shop fat 50s.  When I got it, it was described as being 9/10 condition and I'd say it's at least that.   Just gave it a once over and struggling to find any nicks or dings.  It's in great condition with no neck pocket cracks or anything like that.

Here's a pic of it on my wall as we speak...

Boosted contrast type pic to show off the grain a bit better.  It's a lovely thing in the flesh.

Lovely looking Strat - hope you can get it over the line so you can get what you have your eye on!

Thank you!

Very much a 1st world problem.  If it's meant to be, it'll happen. If not, I've still got a lovely strat...

...although technically I'd still have 2 strats

Haha, yup. I’ve given up trying to chase after guitars; niched myself into a corner now so gonna have to make do!

That one on the left…Christ. Gorgeous!

DDtB

Thanks.

It's my AVRI 62 in Ocean Turquoise.  Sometimes looks green in pics, sometimes almost looks like lake placid blue.  It's a keeper... for now at least!  Was the first 'proper' guitar I bought, so sentimental.  Helps that it sounds and plays great too!

DDtB

Starting to feel like I might be keeping this then.  Few nibbles but mainly folks telling me how nice it is (which it is!! lol), but out of budget.

I've actually got a Squier CV Jag to sell but it won't fund the target purchase, but could do a bundle deal for it with the Strat if that tempts anyone.

Will leave this ad up for another day or so if you've been thinking of making an offer...  now's your chance.  If not, I'll happily keep it.

Cheers!

Interested and local-ish (Ayrshire). Do you have more pictures available?  The background of that boosted contrast pic looks like you’ve got a shop!

DDtB

Happy to take as many pictures/videos as you’d like.  Just let me know if there’s anything in particular you want to see and I’ll do it tomorrow when it’s light.  PM me your email address if that’s easier, or I can upload loads more to imgbb etc.  

That boosted pic is from the place I got it, it’s not my pic.  That’s why it looks like a shop.  The blue wall is mine though

HT986M2

Just a closeup of the front / back of the neck & body if that’s alright? The neck pocket would be good too! Or any visible scratches or dings. 

Nothing too crazy needed though - I just want to get a better idea of the overall condition  

Also, how’s the weight?

DDtB

Not a problem.  Will get plenty pics done in the morning… and will weigh it too.  

DDtB

Sent you a PM with a video ... hth. 

HT986M2

My apologies, I didn't appreciate it had a lacquered fretboard from the pictures.  I had thought it was more of the satin type finish!  A shiny fretboard is a personal bugbear of mine, so it wouldn't be for me I'm afraid.  However, please have a free bump for the inconvenience and hopefully you can get the images and video in here.  The video especially really does show off what great condition it's in!

I have one of these in tobacco sunburst and very nice it is too. So I most certainly don't need another.
That said, does it have a case and would you consider posting? 
Just asking as it's a lovely looking guitar.
Thanks.

DDtB

Happy to post.  I don’t have a case but saw there’s a nice fender hard shell being sold on here and I’m sure a deal could be done that involves me purchasing that to send it in etc… if that helps

You could always take the neck off and wrap well, I’ve sent a few Strats that way.
