FS: 1989/1990 Purple USA Strat plus (?) with EMGs DROP! SOLD

Now SOLD :)

This is a "Player" condition USA Strat, with a N9 serial number (please do tell me if I'm wrong on the year!). It's purple, but hard to photograph. First photo looks blue, but the 2nd photo (from an angle) is much more accurate colour wise.

It plays well, and has had a new set of 9-46 on it. I was going to do another "resto-mod" (I say that tongue and cheek) and get SS6000 frets on it, but decided against it (I really want a Caribbean Mist green one, so holding off for that).

Has EMGs, and various polish marks and a few scuffs (mainly on the back, as pictured). Happy to take more pictures as needed.

Plays well as-is, but has some fret-wear (again, pictured). I've tried to take as honest a photo as I can, so it looks worse than it does in real life ... I think. You're welcome to come and have a look in person, however.

Odd one to price, but starting at £825.

Now dropped to £750. I'll do it for £650 without the EMGs - you'll get the original wiring loom, jack socket and switch, but no pickups.

Collection welcome from Central London, will post at cost (£20)

Interested in trades for an earlier ibanez RG with Edge/Lo-Pro edge and neckplate.

    Very likely a 1990, official colour was midnight blue.

  • Are those the Gilmore EMG?

    No, but I'm pretty sure they're SA pickups - I'll check tonight. I have an SPC control somewhere, which I think basically would make it the same?

    I'm quite tempted to polish this actually, the scratches look waaaay worse in the pictures than in real life.

    To me, that looks like a strat plus deluxe. Do you have the original pickups to hand?

    I don't I'm afraid - though it did come with the original wiring loom thingy, with TBX control.
