It really pains me to have to sell this guitar AGAIN, but an impending baby arrival is forcing this sale, I just can't warrant keeping this when so many other things need bought, so its up for sale again.
I have already sold this guitar once on this very forum, all be it with different pickups.
On the surface this is a 2008 USA standard Stratocaster. But as you can see it looks a bit unique.
The guy I originally bought the guitar off was into his cars, and he searched high and wide to get this guitar finished in a colour called Verde Scandall, which is a colour made famous by Lamborghini.
This is a completely custom paint job that was done professionally and to the highest standard, it looks great in the pictures but looks even better in the flesh. You won't find another guitar like this, it is totally unique. The guitar was stripped down and primed by a pro tech and the new paint job was applied by a reputable car paint shop.
The guitar itself is in excellent condition, there are a few miniscule flaws in the paint that are impossible to photograph, and there is also a little scratch on the edge just down from the bridge strap button (Pictured). There is a tiny bit of fret wear around frets 1-5, but absolutely nothing to worry about.
The guitar has also had a few upgrades. When I got the guitar back for the second time it still had a HSS scratchplate installed, but I always had a thing for the Strat plus model from the late 80's/90's. So I had some lace sensor pickups installed.
There is a Red in the bridge, a Silver in the middle and a Blue Lace Sensor in the neck position. This was professionally done by a local tech, at the same time I had him modify the wiring on the guitar so the bridge pickup is the only pickup wired up to a tone control, the middle and neck pickups are wide open. so The middle tone control is effectively redundant at the moment, the bridge is wired up to the bottom tone control.
At the same time I also had the guitar setup, so the action is nice and low and the intonation is spot on. The guitar is setup with Elixir 10-46 strings. The trem is currently set flat to the body.
Included is the original SKB fender hardcase, which is also in great condition.
Looking for £500 for the guitar, that includes delivery.
