Offered for sale:
Used c2011 Fender Stratocaster serial number MX11106452.
This guitar is in very good condition. The neck and frets are fine. The bridge plate around the vibrato bar receptacle is not perfectly round. We can't imagine why and it certainly doesn't affect the structure or performance of the guitar.
Cosmetically there is a small area of damage that has some touchup on the bass side edge of the top, the rest of the guitar is clean.
The serial number on the neck comes in as a “Classic Player ‘60s Stratocaster”. But we had our doubts because of some inconsistencies. It turns out the guitar is a bit of a “Frankenstein”. This is a Classic Players '60s Stratocaster neck on a Standard Mexican body with Fender Custom Shop Texas Special pickups.
Gig bag included.
“We carefully inspect every instrument when we buy it and bring it up to our standards before we offer it for sale. We also do a full set up before we ship. If you decide to purchase this guitar, please let us know what gauge strings you prefer.”

*Please note: we do our best giving descriptions of used pieces. We have found it impossible to describe every mark on an instrument or amp that is not in the "mint" category. Also, what's important to you may not be important to someone else. For example, you may say, "I don't care what it looks like as long as it plays or sounds well." Another person may say, "Body cosmetics are very important to me so tell me about every scratch, nick and blemish." So, please ask the questions that are most important to you. If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
