Custom Stratocaster.This is a Luthier made Stratocaster using mostly USA and high end components - The body is a Rothco and Frost made in Japan from Hard American Alder and they are superb bodies. I only ever work with bodies that are either true vintage or that I know have been through a proper drying process – These have . New cheap bodies lack the stability and tone of good quality or old matured ones and I won’t use them. No point in a great body and a crap neck and this is a nice rosewood on Canadian flamed maple quality item . I have used them for years with 100% reliability . I also do a very full setup including a fret level , correct nut height adjust as well as all the normal intonation , string height and neck relief.The complete electrics assembly is Fender Standard Strat components with CTS 250 k full sized pots - fender pickups etc . This was purchased as a unit direct from USA . Fender tuners and an Il Sung quality bridge complete the picture. The headstock which I have had to blur in the picture is also correct. It is in new condition but there is a dink in the finish on the top horn ( smoothed but visible from the top ) . I have reflected this hugely in the list price although it is very minor ( These bodies alone retail at around £350 and the total parts cost is well in excess of my asking price ) Playing beautifully with the classic set of Strat tones . I will put into a new Gear for Music padded gig bag . Oversea's please ask for shipping quote - E bay keep fiddling with their listing tools and now it's a mess . Shipping includes insurance
