£619.00 + shipping
JAPAN IMPORT
Here's another lovely guitar built at the Fujigen factory in Japan. The Neo Classic range are really highly regarded & once again, not so easy to find in the UK now they have been discontinued although there are one or two FGN stockists, I believe. I they're great because they take the original Strat idea but then put a few modern twists like Fujigen's "circle fretting system" for improved intonation, a compound radius fretboard, two point tremolo bridge for more stability, satin finish on the neck, locking tuners, H/S/S pickups with coil splitting on the humbucker. All in all a really great Strat.
This particular guitar is around 12 years old and has a few scratches & bumps and some bucklerash on the back (see pics) but overall is in very good condition. The neck is straight and the frets are sound with no indents. It's an excellent player. N.B. It is described as "surf green" & I may be colour blind but I can't see any green in the colour at all. It looks more to me like "ice blue" but who knows? It's a great colour anyway :)

Hard Case
As said many times, all my guitars come shipped in a new black hard case which is included in the price. I find this is the safest way to avoid damage in transit. Please contact me before purchasing if you would like this. Alternatively, if you are collecting the guitar and, like some buyers have cases coming out of their ears, that's no problem, I'll adjust the price (usually around a £50 discount) and I can usually find you an old gigbag to take the guitar away in. The only hard and fast rule I have is that i won't ship a guitar in a gigbag.
If you are further interested in this guitar, you can either email me with any queries & I'll do my best to get back to you within 24 hours.
Or, you can buy quickly and safely using the PayPal "buy now" button and I will ship to most UK addresses the next working day. Highlands and Islands can be slightly dearer but I'll keep the cost as low as I can.
I can accept credit card payments by phone and will also offer a small discount to purchasers using bank transfer payments.
Overseas customers are very welcome but please email me first for shipping quotes.
