This one’s a keeper. It’s a made-in-Mexico Fender Strat in a beautiful sunburst finish with a maple fretboard—super clean and in excellent condition. I had it professionally set up not long ago, so the action is smooth, the intonation is spot on, and it plays effortlessly across the neck.

Tonally, it’s everything you’d expect from a good Strat—bright and articulate when you want it, but it can get warm and punchy too. Whether you’re into blues, rock, funk, or anything in between, it’s got the versatility to cover it.

There’s really nothing it needs. It’s ready to plug in and play straight out of the case. I just have a few too many guitars right now, or I’d be holding onto it.

If you’ve been looking for a Strat that plays and sounds way above its price point, this one’s worth checking out.

Buying direct from me

I bought this guitar, inspected it, photographed it, dialed it in, and I'll be the one packing it. If something isn't right when it arrives, you're not filing a ticket — you're emailing the person who put it in the box.

Same guitar, same packing, same insurance, same 3-day return window you'd get anywhere else I list it. It just costs less here, because there's no platform fee in the price.

Questions before you buy? Ask me anything — more photos, a specific measurement, or anything the listing doesn't cover.

Shipping & Insurance

Ships within 1 business day via UPS or FedEx Ground — typically 3-5 business days in transit. Every guitar is fully insured for its full purchase price, with signature required on delivery. Packed properly — hard cases shipped in a double box with foam padding, strings detuned, neck and headstock supported.

Flat $75 shipping anywhere in the US, no matter the price of the guitar. Full details in the shipping policy.

Returns

3 days from delivery to decide. That's your window to let me know, not to get it back to me. Play it, check it against the listing, and message me if anything's off.

Not as described, or damaged in shipping? Full refund, including the shipping you paid, and I pay return shipping. “As described” means everything in the listing: photos, condition notes, specs and included accessories. Every guitar is insured for its full price. If it's damaged in transit, I handle the carrier claim, and you choose between a repair at my expense or a full refund.

Changed your mind? Return it in the condition it arrived, with everything it came with, for a flat $150 fee. The fee is the same whether the guitar was $900 or $9,000, not a percentage. Return shipping is the buyer's responsibility.

Start any return through the return policy page or contact me directly before shipping anything back.
