Rare 1996 Japanese 57 re issue fender stratocaster, 50th anniversary. excellent condition for nearly 21 years old, no fret wear, no buckle rash, no chips or scratches, just the slightest little mark on back no bigger than a match head, won't even show up on the pic, these are the made in Japan not the later crafted in Japan, Google them, they are considered far superior to any new Jap, Mex and many USA, highly sought after and rare in lefty and even rarer in this condition, completely un molested and original in every way, all soldier joins original, only ever stripped to take these pictures to prove its original, there 2 on ebay at the moment, 1 is £1300 plus shipping plus import and the other is £1020. And that one is in bad condition so I'm starting the bids low as I know it's the wrong time of year to sell it but best offers over starting price takes it, within ebay rules of course, my number is 07791651626, collection highly preferred but if I must post then I will take absolutely no responsibility whatsoever for its safe arrival as I've personally had a guitar sent to me before and it was damaged, take advantage of the time of year as this will not be for sale after Christmas, it can sit under my bed for another 20 years, no fault of its own, I'm just more of a les Paul kind of guy, I'd trade for interesting lefty guitars if one took my fancy, any condition within eBay rules of course, msg or call with suggestions, please be realistic, I know what this is worth
