Fender 2008 50s Classic Series Stratocaster Surf Green Strat Super Clean! 88430
Description
This is a 2008 Fender Classic Series '50s Stratocaster in the very cool Surf Green finish. This guitar is in excellent playing and mint cosmetic condition. Features:
-- Beautiful amber tint 50s soft V neck
-- Alder body poly finish
-- Upgraded 3-ply pearloid pickguard
The guitar does not have a scratch or ding on it. Frets in A+ condition. Weight is 7 pounds, 14 ounces. Comes with tremolo bar and gigbag. Please note: this is a 14-year-vintage instrument. Surf Green tends to fade toward blue over time. So it has a bit more blue to it than some newer Surf Green guitars. (search the serial number on Fender website and you'll see it confirms it to be Surf Green.) If you want to see additional pics, ask before buying. 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
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 15 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 "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
