Hi All,
Was wandering if anyone can give me a guide value of my Japanese Fender Strat.
I believe it was made in 1987. I've owned it since about 1995, played it for a few years back then, gave up for 20 years and last year dug it out of the loft to rekindle the love!
I find the neck too chunky and am looking to sell trade to something with a modern C type neck and was wandering on what I could expect to get for it on ebay/gumtree.
Its had some work done to it. Whoever owned it before me routed it to fit a humbucker at the bridge. I have added a Seymour Duncan hotrail, and changed the pots and switch, though still have all parts that I have switched out.
Any feedback much appreciated.

If you want to sell the hot rail separately though, I'll take it off your hands. Just remembered I talked myself out of the hot rails for a hot stack instead.
Nice looking Strat, that!

The routing likely will, which is daft considering it's covered by the scratchplate. Will be lessened if the routing is clean as a whistle.
MIJ used prices can depend on which version of each model you buy, the cheaper ones are basswood and have standard pickups, the more expensive were alder/ash and have 'USA' pickups.
Let's see that routing!
dibs if you sell it..
Thanks all for the feedback. One vintage, rare, one of a kind etc etc strat to hit the market place soon!
I'll get some pics of the routing this evening.
I've not played a vast amount of strats so couldn't really say whether its a 'good one' or not, I just find the neck too chunky and cant get on with it. I thought about replacing the neck as the rest of the guitar is fine, but the cost of a new neck put me off that idea!
I'll get it on the classifieds over the weekend.
