FS/FT: '79 Fender Strat relic **SOLD**
£800


Recommended Posts

Another step in my current gear restructure. This is a rather nice Strat if you like that lived in/well played/hung out with the Stones look. Neck and body are both original Fender '79, bought from Fender Factors a couple of years back. The body is very very nicely beaten up, please see photos. This is not a case of 'there's a small dink in the upper bout'. The neck is in very good condition, lovely dark rosewood board and, of course, the large headstock :)

Neck and body are the only original vintage Fender parts.

PUPs and circuit are from Joseph Kaye https://www.josephkayeguitars.com/about/ who, among others, makes PUPs for Wilco Johnson. Tuners are a nice set of Klusons bought new from WD (I think) last year.  Pickguard is a lovely aged 3-ply Tort I picked up from the USA which still has the film in place. Guitar owes me over £1000, £800 is a decent price for this rather lovely old thing.

Lovely 😊 

Thanks mate, it's a stunner, and I would love to keep it. But then I'd probably have to play it, and I'm having enough trouble finding time to play bass at the moment :(

I could do with moving this on. There's not a lot of cash around at present so happy to accept PX offers, could use a decent 1x15 (Ampeg or Mesa preferred), a decent small head (Walkabout would be lovely but something in that space would be good), and I'm always open for basses, quite fancy a 6-string fretless at present :)
