This beautiful guitar ( which is NOT a Mark Knopfler Signature model) is one of 5 lots I'm forced to sell due to downsizing at home. I am in my late sixties and now retired so my collection has to be drastically cut. I have been building Strats since 1980 and have sold a lot over the years my objection was to keep the best, but now I'm reluctantly even having to part with some of those. This particular guitar I created last year using a '62 Strat AVRI body bought from the USA back in 2008, it was originally in sunburst and in sweet sounding Alder, in weighed just 3lb 12oz. I got the Hot Rod Nitro colour matched from my original 2003 MK signature model (now also reluctantly sold) The neck is a superb 9.5" radius Musikraft '59 model with Real Clay dots, Fender logo vintage tuners and Rosewood board, Medium 6105 frets (which have very light wear) and a rare Thin "C" profile, it's 1"5/8" across the bone nut. The bridge is Fender USA vintage c/w "pat pending"saddles, the pickups are Fender 57/62 and everything on or off the Aged white Pickguard with full '62 shield is genuine Fender, pots, switch,knobs, even the screws and strap buttons, I never fit anything else on the guitars I intended to keep, the quality of my guitars compares with anything from the custom shop. To sum up, this guitar is in superb condition, just one light indentation near the neckplate, it has fabulous tone and plays superb, just thumb through my 100% seller feedback which will bare witness. Here's a link to Mark playing the very guitar I appraised and made him so famous, as one of the greatest guitarists to grace this planet.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JyZ81XAYTA a custom shop clone would be at least double this price.Please note: I'm afraid to say it's become apparent there's a current culture of claiming guitars are arriving damaged in order to claim a partial refund. It has happened to me twice now and after offering a total refund for the return of the item, both buyers decided to hang on to the items -- Hmm! Sorry but if your up to this mularkey please buy elsewhere. To this end I would much prefer the guitar to be collected if at all possible. Please checkout my other top notch guitars for sale, thank you.
