Members jmb7183 Posted June 8, 2007 Members Share Posted June 8, 2007 I'm putting the feelers out there now while I put this back to stock... This is an '03 Special Edition strat of some kind. I'm a bass player and have no idea what made it special. The original config is SSS with a gold guard. It will be put back to this condition today, but I will include the guard shown in the photos should you like to mod it again. It does come with the trem arm. If anyone has any idea what exact model and special edition this is, please let me know via PM. Thanks! I'm going to ask $400 to start with the HSC, extra guard and a brand new set of D'Addario 10's on there. Another pickguard that looks great on this guitar...but is NOT INCLUDED in the sale...

Members jmb7183 Posted June 20, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 20, 2007 New pictures are up...the one pic with the gold guard is only the guard laying on top of the tort guard that is installed currently, not fully installed. The tort guard IS NOT INCLUDED!! Please make note. Answers to questions... destroyed...quite possibly...my Dakota is lacking a good system at the moment. Dr. Scottie C - think what you want...it's a MIM special edition Fender. Now go bug someone else if you're not interested. semi - I'm not into parting this out...sorry! woody...we've gone back and forth on this guitar for awhile...will you just hurry up, sell yours and buy this one already! Thanks ransom... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey...I'm a web designer, I work from home and have a lot of time on my hands! As far as the mods...I wondered that myself when I got it. I like the original look just fine. And the humbucker that was in there was from an old Ibanez...not the greatest pickup IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
