Deluxe Decals

fender strat good buy or bad?

Im buying a Fender American deluxe strat from a friend and hes selling it for £500 its from 1997. it has minor buckle rash on the back and the “c” is missing from stratocaster on the headstock decal because its a decal on the top of the laquor and the”c” started to peel so he cut the “c” off

Hello! If the headstock decal is partially detached, the guitar has been exposed to some severe temperature changes, which could have affected the integrity of the body and neck. Look carefully for any signs of warpage or cracks. The minor buckle rash is not a big deal, but it is an indication as to how the instrument has been treated. Make sure everything is operational, both electronics and hardware. As far as the cost, $758 is a good price, but not a steal. Given that everything is fully functional and in good condition, $600 to $700 (396 to 462 pounds) would be a more appropriate amount, especially considering the current worldwide economy situation. You do not want to inherit problems, so check it carefully! Best regards, Dana
