    Hi!

    I'm offering my Strat, which is a copy of a 1967 Fender Stratocaster, for sale. Asking price is 2200.- Euro.

    It has the large headstock, the transitional F logo and the F-style tuners. It also has the target burst finish typical of that period.

    The body and neck are by Scott Cameron of Golden Era Aged Guitars, who has done a beautiful nitro finish and ageing on both. The pickups are Kloppmann Real 65, the electronics are from Artys Custom Guitars (the circuitry has master tone, master volume, and a series blender pot that can be used to switch the neck/middle or middle/bridge in series).

    I used this to play Jazz and Fusion, it has a really convincing clean Jazz tone due to the optional series wiring of the neck and middle pickups.

    The plastic parts and remaining hardware are from Crazyparts and are also stylistically appropriate for a late 60s Strat.

    The guitar sounds great and is super playable in all positions. No dead spots and no fret buzz. It weighs only 3.39 kg and is very loud and resonant even when unamplified.

    An old molded case from the 80s is included.

    Testing and collection preferred (in Vienna, Austria), but I can ship within the EU.

    Just a great Strat! Fantastic for Jazz, Fusion, but has also all the classic Blues and Rock Strat sounds available.

    The word "copy" implies that it was not made by Fender, is that what you mean?

    Yes, although neck and body are licensed by Fender Allparts.

    Yes, you said that in your first post, I should have read through it before commenting.

    At first sight, your price seems quite inflated for a copy of a name brand guitar, but maybe the features you listed justify your asking price, I'm not familiar with these companies: "The body and neck are by Scott Cameron of Golden Era Aged Guitars, who has done a beautiful nitro finish and ageing on both. The pickups are Kloppmann Real 65, the electronics are from Artys Custom Guitars (the circuitry has master tone, master volume, and a series blender pot that can be used to switch the neck/middle or middle/bridge in series)."

    I suppose the obvious question is: what would it cost to duplicate it? (what did it cost you to have it built.) Frankly, this being a jazz guitar forum, there is not a lot of demand here for this type of guitar.

    I know, I still wanted to give it a try, since I see the occasional Strat or even Marshall amp advertised here. I don't want to spam the forum, so I won't bump it anymore

    I don't want to discourage you but the solid body guitars I've seen sold here have all been under $1k and your asking price is about twice that amount. You know the value of your Strat but convincing others of it may be a challenge - in this forum anyway. Good luck with the sale.
