SOLD in priciple - 60's Roadworn Stratocaster - 3 Colour Sunburst

maw4neu

Hello Chaps . . . I finally managed to get hold of a beautiful AVRI 62 Stratocaster last month   . . . Its everything I'd hoped it would be and more so I'm well chuffed  . . .

Sadly Im really not using my Roadworn 60's Stratocaster in 3 Colour Sunburst any more as I cant put the AVRI Strat down . . Im debating whether or not I should sell the Roadworn Strat and Im probably going to list it soon which is a shame as they are a joy to play.

It feels and plays amazingly well and it seems to hold tune well too. Ive fitted a matt black scratch plate but I still have the original that it came with and its in a generic case . . . I don't have the original back plate but I bought a black one & haven't fitted it yet & probably wont bother. Ive all the hang tags etc  . . . Is anyone on the forum interested ?? Im just outside Manchester in not so sunny Oldham

I paid around £475 for it, taking in the courier cost etc. so Id be looking to get the same sort of dosh back . . . .

Just weighed it and its light as a feather at 6 1/2 lbs . . . 

The fist piccy is what its like now, and the rest are the piccys I was sent when I bought it  . . . 

Update : No trades on this one as Ive just got a bill from our solicitors for over a grand . . . It turns out when someone pulls out of the purchase of your house, two weeks  before completion, the seller ( me ) foots the bill . . . What a bastard :-( I thought it was no sale, no fee . . How wrong was I ??

Has the neckplate been changed? Do you have the original white tipped trem arm?

Yes the neck plate is a Fender "F"  type I've had in my parts bucket for ages, the original is in the case as you spotted and, No I don't have the original white tipped tremolo arm, just the black tipped 5mm stainless steel tremolo arm that's currently fitted  . . . I think I may have put the white one on the CAR 62 Jap Strat that I recently sold . . . It was a bit longer than I prefer as I remember  . .
