BUT remember the BEST price will be when you buy in store ;o)

Summary:
The American Professional was the evolution of the American Standard and has some upgrades that the players really wanted! A nice deep C shape neck with a 9.5 radius. The frets are narrow tall and give a vintage inspired but modern playability to the guitar. The maple neck even has some slight flame! How about that for a bonus?

More info:
Body Condition: 8/10 – The guitar has been well looked after by its previous owner. A couple of small bumps and impact marks in the body (nothing big enough to show in pictures) nothing has gone through the finish or shows wood. For an 8 year old guitar it’s in really good condition.

Neck: 8/10 – The neck is in good shape too, some light wear on the frets but nothing major that would require any fret work (flat spots etc) the back of the neck is in good shape also, no dings to the underside of the headstock. The back of the neck is a satin finish and the board is gloss.

Hardware: 8/10 – All original stock hardware, some light tarnishing on the machine heads and saddles, nothing you wouldn’t expect to see on a Fender to be honest. All functions perfectly. Some rusting found on the pickup screws and saddle screws.

Electrics: 9/10
Sockets, pots and switches etc are wear and tear items. The electrics on this guitar have been tested and are in very good working order, but my standard disclaimer is it’s a used guitar and one must expect SOME occasional electrical ‘scratching’ noise, crackling and popping when adjusting pots and switches. When we tested it, this guitar was working very very well.

Playability:
This guitar has been lovingly set up by Jon, one of the UK’s most highly regarded and experienced guitar techs.
That doesn’t mean this guitar is the best playing guitar ever, it just means that he has taken the time to set it up. Adjust the action, intonation etc so that it plays as well as can be expected and stays in tune as good as any guitar of this type does.
We all have differing styles and demands from our instruments. Some of us like fast n low actions for fretboard burning licks, others prefer a high n mightly action for show stopping windmills and downtuned heavy riffing and everything in between. No one set up suits all!
This specific guitar has been set up sympathetically for it’s style so has a fairly low action, and minimal fret buzzing.

Case: Comes with Fender hard case and COA

Priced with all of the above in mind but feel free to “make an offer”.
