FENDER USA ROLAND VG MODELING STRATOCASTER Bag + Papers American G5 Strat 69328
This is a 2007 Fender VG Stratocaster in sunburst finish, made in America. The guitar is in excellent playing and cosmetic condition. It still has the plastic on the pickguard and looks hardly played. It comes with Fender gig bag plus factory paperwork and tremolo bar. The cosmetics are 9.5/10 with no dings or scratches. Frets in A+ condition.
These guitars of course have the rare Roland modeling on board. The T-knob provides you with 6 different tunings including: Normal, Open G, Drop D, Baritone, D Modal and 12 string. The M-knob controls 5 different modes which include Normal, Modeled Strat, Modeled Tele, Modeled humbucking pickup, and modeled acoustic sounds. It's ready to play and enjoy. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. Weight is approximately 8 pounds. Comes with some working alkaline batteries installed, but I don't know how much life they have left. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing, as well as more manufacturer info.) Thanks!

Guitar Setup
All setups are done by our in-house 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.
