WTB - something with single coils and a trem for under £550
What's Hot
Anyone got anything? Preferably a Fender or G&L or similar. Nothing pointy or shreddy.
Must have single coils (or G&L MFDs) and a trem. Nothing with humbuckers (so no HSS guitars).
Not really into short scale (Jags or Mustangs).
Looking at £550 or under delivered in the UK.

Some small dings, on the edge, near the jack socket.
The stock pickups are considerably better than the average Fender MIJ single coils. IMO, the bridge position pickup is a bit weedy. An upgrade would not hurt.
Seven sound mod. Push-pull pot under the upper tone control adds the neck position pickup to whatever the selector switch has engaged.
Price with case and delivery will be under £550.
I know now it has a humbucker in the bridge, but here are 3 different single coil tones (either coil split and both coils in parallel) available on the rotary switch of the tortie pickguard - plus full HB if you ever wanted it?
Too shreddy?
At the moment I'm looking for:
* Hamer Watson, SS2, Vintage S, T62.
* Music Man Luke 1, Luke II
Please drop me a message.
Thanks. I may well end up going down the route of a new G&L Tribute, although I'm more into the Doheny I think.....

That actually does look lovely, but it is a bit too shreddy for me.
Not really. Prefer a Fender 'custom colour' to a sunburst, unless the 'burst is especially nice.
How about a nice natural partscaster strat. All excellent components. Well over £500 parts
