Incoming means I need to sell a couple of guitars to make up the funds, so here goes. This is a fantastic Strat that plays beautifully and sounds even better. It’s only on the chopping block as I have another very similarly specced Strat with a rosewood fretboard with I prefer. 

It’s a heavy relic (Black nitro over Aztec Gold nitro), with Gotoh and Sperzel gold hardware and an absolutely spectacular AAAA flame maple neck finished in oil that was made for me by Loxley Custom Guitars. The guitar comes loaded with a set of Radioshop’s Vintage ‘63 Specials pickups all wired together by a Bare Knuckle harness with the best components. 

The body was bought from Guitarbuild and is lightweight 2 piece alder. It was finished in heavy relic black over gold nitro by Guitar Resurrection and I’ve tried my best to capture the beautiful checking present all across the body.

(Really sorry but I can't get the links to post pics this evening. I think my wifi may be playing silly buggers. If someone could help me out I'd be most grateful!)

Price: £850 (plus courier costs if required) will come with a Stagg hardcase. One of the latches is a bit iffy but it'll keep the guitar safe in transit.
