(Sold, ya'll know what happened) FS/FT: Fender Ultra Strat, SSS, Cobra Blue, £1100 posted

Chimpankie

Update: in 'classic ebay' the winning buyer asked to cancel for some spurious reason. Have to wait until I have another fee offer to relist so this is temporarily back up!

(Withdrawn as listed on eBay as auction)

Selling my American Fender Ultra Stratocaster, SSS in Cobra Blue, 2021.

This model includes three 'Ultra Vintage Noiseless' single coils and an S1 switch which adds the neck pickup to whichever other pickup is selected.

The satin, one piece maple neck is a compound radius (10 - 14 inch). 

Other standard appointments include a 2 post tremolo and Fender locking tuners. 

Comes complete with original hardcase, all paper work including Fender paper wallet and certificate and, of course, trem bar. 

In excellent condition, near mint except for one finish crack (described below). Very minimal wear to frets. Low-medium action, well intonated and plays well across the neck. No dead spots, buzz or other issues. 

 In the photos the backplate is off but I’ll put it back on before shipping.

A bit more on the finish crack: there is a small hairline crack in the finish at the neck pocket on the bass side. I’ve done my best to photograph it but the sparkly finish makes it difficult to see. It’s a surface finish crack of the type you often see in fender neck pockets.

Happy to post for £1100 (or willing to meet a reasonable distance). Will post using Overland Express as I now have a box

Could be tempted by trades… open minded.

Quick bump as it’s now on eBay and reverb but always prefer a fretboard sale!

Not much interest on this here but one last weekend bump…

Shocked it hasn't sold - that's a good price and the strat ultra has a great neck.   If it was a black or texas tea finish I'd have bought it.

Agreed, great guitar. If it was the Ultra Tele I'd have your arm off for it at that price

Chimpankie

Thanks guys, the neck is fantastic on it. Only selling because I’ve bought something else I now need to pay for…

 I definitely had a wobble when I got it out to photograph before having a word with myself about the financial implications.

Final price drop to £1100 posted before I relist on eBay as an auction

I bet you wish you’d put it on eBay sooner looking at how the bidding’s going!

Always prefer a fretboard sale but yes, happy with the bidding  that said, have had winning bidders ask to cancel in the past so won’t be counting on anything until it’s all done! 

prudd

Fingers crossed for you getting the sale at a price where it should be, £1100 was way to cheap for one of these IMHO

Chimpankie

Looks like I jinxed myself... the winning bidder on Ebay asked me to cancel. I've got to wait for a fee offer before I relist so... it's temporarily back up for sale here!
