Fender Stratocaster

Up for auction is a Fender Stratocaster 6-String Electric Guitar, including padded gig bag.

This guitar is being sold AS IS for parts or repair. Our regular return policy detailed below will NOT apply!

This guitar was pawned and tested and found to not be in good playing condition. The electronics are not testing properly. There is a static noise when plugged into an amplifier that increases in volume when the knobs are turned. We believe that the input jack is faulty and is in need of repair. One of the tone knobs is striped.

This guitar shows heavy wear from previous play. We found damage on this guitar beyond normal wear. The bottom of the guitar has very deep chip exposing the wood under the paint. The tuxedo striped white pickguard shows yellowing (smoking environment?), peeling of the protective film, grime, and  evidence of what we assume were manufacturer's labels having been removed. Also there are several scratches and scuffs.  There is a lot of fret wear.

The gig bag we are providing came from our inventory. The neck appears to be straight to the naked eye. There is a chip by where the neck meets the body. Please view photos for more detail.

Guitar Features:

• 22 Frets on a Rosewood Fretboard with White Dot Inlays


• Maple "Skunk Striped" Bolt-On Neck

Please note that we have purposely neglected to present a photograph of the gig bag included in order to present as many photographs of the guitar as possible. The padded gig bag is black and in very good condition with very little wear. It has and outside zippered pocket and carry handles and a shoulder strap. It fits the guitar relatively well and will help to ship the guitar safely.

All of our guitars are shipped well-packed in heavy duty, 275-pound test weight cardboard containers made specifically for guitars.
