Price check please (78 Strat)
What's Hot
Have one in hand that I really like .
it’s a 78 , replacement pickups (bare knuckle) , no case and replacement Callahan bridge and trem. Everything else stock and just under 9lb so no back breaker.
Guy wants £1500 for it - the last 76 Strat I sold was all stock and went for £1650 ish but that was before the current inflated prices.
Does it sound the right ballpark ? Feels a couple of hundred high to me but it does play very nicely tbf.
Thanks for any help
PS - I’m not buying it to sell it of course but you guys know me, it won’t be long before something else catches my eye
Comments
In a nutshell the replacement bridge , trem and block wasn’t mentioned in the ad but it’s interesting that in the link you posted it is part of the web page title so maybe they just forgot to add it to the listing ?
I was a bit peed off and instigated a return but it really does play well so I wanted to get some more opinions before I packed it up.

though could you ask for a case? or go halves on one? if they have one
