FS/FT: CS ‘63 relic Strat

LewyLewy Frets: 3795
edited September 2023 in Guitars £
This is a real hot rod of a strat and if it had a bridge humbucker I’d be keeping it, but alas it doesn’t. It was originally an actual custom order as I understand it. Specs:

Base model: ‘63 Relic Strat
Pickups: Ancho Poblanos 
Frets: 22, recently refretted with 6000 super jumbo frets by the brilliant Dave Smart
Trem: aftermarket Callaham aged “Vintage Narrow” block, bridge and arm

Originally just for trade but I’ve seen something for sale
I’m interested in so now also for sale. £3000 plus shipping (or collection from Wokingham).

Trades considered: Custom Shop Charvel, or Charvel GG, Friedman Cali, Suhr Modern, Thorn or Andy Wood, Floyds welcome but sharp pointyness probably not.

    Bit too pointy for me.

    Bump with sale option added

    Don't know what your thoughts on Jordan Guitars are (I like em TBF), but he has a GG in stock and I'm sure he'd trade for this mate.

    My head said brake, but my heart cried never.

    No worries mate, hope you can do a deal.

    Another bump to see if any tantalising trades come out of the woodwork. I have an option with a dealer but would much rather do something player to player! 

    If this Strat had a bridge humbucker I doubt I’d play anything else… shame none of the single coils sized ones sound right to my ears.

    Another bump, just to see if there are any interesting trades going for modern-playing guitars of a similar value
