FENDER RARE LILAC! Classic Series 60s Stratocaster 2015 Special Ed Strat 81345
You're looking at a 2015 Fender Classic Series 60s Stratocaster Special Edition in Lilac. Really pretty color in great cosmetic and playing condition. Pictures don't do it justice. It's a light lavender/lilac color with cool, mint green pickguard, aged yellow plastics, and C-shaped 7.25" radius neck. The guitar is near mint. One pinhead size mark and a barely visible scuff (see pics). Set up great, playing great. Frets are in excellent condition. This was part of a limited run made in 2015 only for Guitar Center stores. Comes with tremolo bar but no case. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. Weight is 7 pounds, 12 ounces. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking!

Guitar Setup
My setup on guitars 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. I spray out any pots that are noisy. I 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. I don't claim to be a trained luthier, but I'm able to set guitars/basses for a reasonable out-of-box experience and have had very few complaints. If you're looking for the perfect setup on a used guitar, please expect to take it to a trained luthier who is familiar with your individual playing style and preferences. ps: basses get the same setup minus the new strings. 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.
