SOLD: Mildly famous Fender Custom Shop 1956 Relic Strat – new new price!

xchrisv

I’m going to regret this! For sale is my 2014 Custom Shop '56 Strat complete with original case, COA and all candy. Light weight and a fantastic neck – it’s only been taken to gigs as a spare guitar but has been used on a tonne of recordings and a number of videos. It’s also been used as a prop in many mag photoshoots and has even been on the cover. £2,250 £2,150 £2,000 – sale only, no trades.

Hear it from 2:52 in this video: https://youtu.be/l9vL82Vsh2E

I remember ogling the grain on that one when I saw the magazine cover. Beautiful looking classic , GLWTS

Thanks, it’s a beaut and I will doubtless regret it but the GAS for something else is strong...

I'd give my right arm to be mildly famous on guitar

@roberty you would then be a one armed guitarist.  undoubtedly leading to you being more than mildly famous..drastic though

Another price cut. £2,000 plus postage, although collection from South Wales/Bath is preferred.

Blimey, at this rate it'll be £1,000 by the end of the week.

Nope! I'm simply looking for a quick sale so have reduced it accordingly. Not going any lower than £2,000 but thanks for encouraging prospective buyers to keep their powder dry, I'm sure it'll help me with the sale ;-)

It was just a light hearted observation. I thought the initial asking price was fine.

I was only joking, too – no harm done :-)

I’ve had a couple of people ask about the weight – 7.2lb dead on
