Members cantdrive55 Posted October 8, 2005 Author Members Share Posted October 8, 2005 Sweet, thanks Gents. What would you say, would be a good price for a black MIM 95 Strat with a medium sized paint chip on the side of the body under the input jack? Rosewood board.

Members cantdrive55 Posted October 8, 2005 Author Members Share Posted October 8, 2005 buying, no case or bag. other than the chip, seems to be in pretty good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jjpistols Posted October 8, 2005 Members Share Posted October 8, 2005 I'd think $200-250 would be a fair range, play up the chip to grind the price down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just recently gotten into strats myself, thanks in big part to OFG I think he did manage to hang on to a couple of dozen black ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got lucky, been looking for a cheap rosewood strat for a while. OldFenderGuy, what do you think? Sounds like a good deal to me... I actually like the mid 90 MIM 'strats more than the new ones, and the few MIM's that I have kept range from 1994 to 1996 models.The bodies could be either Poplar or Alder, as Fender was using whatever was available back then. I have two 1995 MIM 'strats, one with each body wood. But then again, if you are going with a solid finish there isn't a thing wrong with Poplar, and I think it has more of a 'snap' to the tone.
