FS - Signature Str1- SOLD

What's Hot

Hi all

After watching Colin on his Guitaristas Youtube Channel I thought it was time to clear a few out myself.
First up for grabs are a made in Japan Signature STR1-HB that I have owned for around 8 years or so.
These came from the Fujigen factory in Japan around 2008 and a search on these boards and google shows they are well regarded for the build quality and seem to have been compared with the made in Japan Epiphone Elitist guitars.
Condition is very good and it had a refret around 6 years ago when I opted for that instead of a fret dress.

Based in Northwich I would be looking for somebody to collect from me or would be will to travel a short distance to get a deal sorted.

Priced to move quickly I am looking for £350 for this.
(Pictures below show p90 pups fitted but these have now been removed and the original pups are back in!)








Second is a Epiphone Les Paul Special in TV Yellow.

Excellent condition and I can see why the guitar got all those positive reviews when it got released around 2020 ?
Fitted with a Oil City masterwound p90 in the Bridge it really is a lot of guitar for not a big outlay.

Again based in Northwich and collection would be the best option for me. Looking for £250 for this which I feel is a good price!

    That STR1 is a bargain, Ive owned a couple of these and they are amazing value for a MIJ guitar.

    The fretwork on this one sends it to an even higher level. As you say they are great guitars but sometimes you really do need to force yourself to move a few on!

    It really is a great guitar and at this price I honestly do not think you would get anything as good! I would say that obviously but a quick look on the web shows how these get overlooked because it does not have a big brand stamped on the headstock.

    Hmmm, I’d have to sell my old Yamaha semi first as cash is hard at moment. Let me think. It will probably sell before I can get sorted.

  • Do you still have the signature and does the neck have a scarf joint?
