FENDER 72 Surf Green PAWN SHOP Stratocaster Telecaster f-Hole Japan MIJ 11955
This is a Fender 72 Pawn Shop guitar in amazing condition, made in Japan, in rare Surf Green finish. Great idea to join a Stratocaster body with a Telecaster neck and why not make it a semi-hollow design with an F-hole while you're at it? So many cool features: from the 3-bolt neck and "F" neck plate, two mis-matched pickups, single volume and pickup blend knobs, mint green pickguard--it's a winner. The guitar is super clean 9.75/10 with one tiny mark (see pics). Light and easy to play. Weight is 7 pounds, 12 ounces. No case. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
All our setups are done by our in-house trained luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
