But remeember the BEST price will be here in store !

Condition: 6.5/10 – Overall for the age of the guitar I would say the body is in good condition. There are a few bumps dings and scratches around the body. Please also note the large scrape on the bottom of the body that has removed the finish (see pictures) there is also a small lacquer crack on the lower side of the neck pocket, does not affect the playability of the guitar at all though. Various scratches on the back of the guitar.

Neck: 7/10 – The neck is in good condition, frets have plenty of life left in them. The finish is a gloss finish on the back of the neck but it has been worn down over the years so doesn’t exhibit that horrible sticky feel you find on any new Fender Reissue guitar. A couple of scuffs in the top of the headstock.

Hardware: 7/10 – All original hardware on the guitar, minus the one saddle under the high E string we had to replace as it was missing. We did use a genuine Fender vintage bent steel saddle, so it’s right for type. Tuners appear to function perfectly and are original.

Electrics: 8/10 – 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. In our opinion the electrics on this guitar exhibit less than average ‘noise’ in normal play but there’s no guarantee how long they will stay in this condition.

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: No gig bag or case included, will be well packed for shipment

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