SCAMMER WARNING: Due to a spate of recent scam attempts (some successful) recently, if you're doing a deal in the classifieds, ONLY USE PAYPAL GOODS AND SERVICES UNLESS YOU KNOW THAT INDIVIDUAL PERSONALLY. It's really not worth saving a few quid.
Xotic California Classic XSC 1 Sea Foam Green Medium Aged £1800
This is actually really difficult to sell, because it's such a great guitar, in fact I can't articulate how good it is. Unfortunately I have 2 other stellar Strats and something needs to go, having had a play off today.... It's this one 
Xotic California Classic XSC 1 in Sea Foam Green, (it's greener than the pics show, such a hard colour to photograph, it looks amazing in the flesh!), hand made, lovely medium relic finish with some beautiful checking and a 4A flame maple neck that's a decent handful but easy to play due to the slinky finish, 12" radius, and asymmetric profile. They're listed as modern C, but if you look them up it's a bit chunkier than you think. The handwound RV50s are such great pickups, really 50s sounding and super sensitive they're almost like microphones, and very very Stratty (unsurprisingly!). The trem with RV springs and saddles is the lightest feeling, most responsive, and stable Strat style trem I've used.
The body is pretty much in as new condition (weird to say for a relic but I've studied the original pics so I'm pretty sure), the frets are fine too, unfortunately the only downside is that the fingerboard had some wear to it from someone's untrimmed finger nails I would guess, however I touched it in with some tru-oil (on Xotics say so) and polished it up and now it's almost blended in except for some darker patches on the fingerboard (pictured). There's also a couple of marks on the headstock but none of these things affect the playability and amazing tone of the guitar.
Weighs 7lb 9oz
Complete with original Hardcase, candy & fret protector.
Specs are as follows, pics below, I'm looking for £1800 PPG, I'd prefer collection or meeting somewhere but it may be possible to arrange shipping at cost.
