The Fender Strat "Relic" is officially for TRADE

Ok, so everyone and their pet rock knows about this guitar now. After spending some time with it today, I have decided that I may want to try something else. (I know...probably sounds weird after I waited 2 months for this to be completed, on gear-o'holics would understand)

 

So here are the facts:

 

Warmoth Ash Body

Fender 1994 Made In Japan Maple Neck

USA Clapton Electronics with Active Midboost

Custom Designed Kill Switch

Hand Cut Bone Nut

Refretted with Medium Frets

Nitro sprayed just like vintage strats

The Neck & Frets have been filed and smoothed for a buttery feel

Professionally Relic'd (over 40 hours spent doing detail work like rust & cigarette burns)

Fender Custom Shop Logo

Period Correct Fender Strat Decal

Work done by a Fender CS employee as a side project

Deluxe Vintage Grover Tuners

Action and intonation set by the luthier.....the action is crazy low, with no buzz.

 

Looks and plays like a $3500 Custom Shop Relic

Comes with a retangular hardshell case

 

Looking for electric guitars??? No junk please. I know what I have here.

Anything specific you're looking for trade? I really like that Blackie.

 

 

Nothing specific per se... you have several things in your signature that sound nice, but like you, I am more of a traditionalist...so the Floyd's don't do much for me.

 

I mean, your ESP is out for sure.... the Players Condition Reb is ok, but I wouldn't do a straight across trade, I would need another guitar with it.

 

Your EdwardsLP Custom would be more my speed.

 

But things could maybe be worked out on: Godin LGxt, Peavey Odyssey, Hamer Daytona, Yamaha SA2000, Ibanez RBM2NT, Jackson Fusion Pro, Warmoth Strat.

 

PM me with ideas.

 

Thanks

why would you trade this? Ever? Think about it man..when will you EVER get a chance to own anything like this again, even the original blackies are 400 total. This guitar..there is 1 total. 1 in the whole world and it is yours, made especially for you. short of becoming famous and blowing minds with your licks, this is as close as any normal guitar player is going to get to having a signature stratocaster. just my thoughts. If you do trade, trade heavy.

You make a valid point, and I appreciate your thoughts. There is a member on here who has a very nice guitar model that I have been wanting for years, but never had one. We are in negotiations right now.

But yes, where as I don't expect someone to swap me a $2500 guitar for this, a $250.00 isn't going to work either. :) The pickups are worth that.:cool:

Thanks for your input.

Hello, New to the Forum [Obviously] so I spied this Strat.........I have a 1985 Fender 62 Reissue Stratocaster in CAR thats way played out......down to the gold undercoat in areas.I have owned it for ever and its NFS but your guitar does appeal to me for that very reason..........yours has the very used worn look that does look so very cool...........plus a bevey of nice upgrades.I'll throw this into the mix and offer you my 1980s Yamaha SG-2500 [NOT 2000.... this was/is a Japan market only issue SG] top of the line[Read the Vintage Guitar Magazine article on Yamaha SGs] when the SG-3000 was pulled out of the series. conditon is EX++++ Vintage Mint really, the gold hardware is near perfect also. all stock WINE RED I don't have the Yamaha OHSC for the guitar but it does have a brand new TKL case. grey inside [ and the guitar fits like a glove] and black tolex outside. if your guitar isn't sold or traded yet its something to consider,atleast.........I see one of the guitars your looking for IS a SG/SBG-2000.

Anyone??


C'mon...try me....


Also.... don't think you have to have something super high end.... also, a 2 for 1 deal is cool too.


Like, for example, a MIM Fender + something?? for my Blackie...etc..


Worst I can say is no.


Electric guitars only please though.


hey, first off, amazing guitar, I was totally floored when I saw it! Would you be interested in a mesa heartbreaker? Its a 100w tube combo that is just amazing. I'm only getting rid of it because its more power than I need and I am gonna try my hand at an orange amp. I can throw in my fender mim tele with American pickups. Its my backup to my PRS at all gigs, sounds amazing and is totally mint. Black with a maple board, the way god intended :thu:

I gotta ask with all the avatars we have been seeing, which girl is yours anyway.

 

 

 

Look out....here comes another hot picture..... by the way, this girl, Jenna...thinks "Blackie" is sexy. And no.... in this case, Blackie refers to this guitar, not her toy that runs on two D Batteries.
