❌SOLD❌ Fender Stratocaster ‘Partscaster’ Relic Green, 1997

On November 25, 2021 /

When Leo Fender had the frankly brilliant idea of the bolt-together guitar and used ‘caster’ as part of the name, what’s known as a ‘Partscaster’ also came into existence. Partscasters were and continue to be a big trend. Modifying fenders to customize for each player’s needs, uses and tendencies end up being not only a good learning experience for those into DIY but offer more specific-to-the-player tool rather than the standard off-the-shelf instruments.

On November 17, 2021 /

Part of the Standard Series built from 2009 to 2018, the Fender Jazz Bass LH Standard was built in Ensenada, Mexico and is an excellent mid-range bass. Leo Fender introduced the Jazz Bass in the summer of 1960, aiming it directly at those bassists who had not yet shifted to electric.

SOLD Charvel DK24 HH Quilted Maple PurpleBurst, 2018

On November 5, 2021 /

Charvel DK24 guitars are known for their fast playability, wild finishes and pro features at a great price. The purple burst finish on a quilted maple top is sure to stand out as you blaze up and down the 24 fret speed neck with its smooth satin finish. Here we’re looking at a gently used Charvel DK24 HH QM built during 2018 in Ensenada, Mexico – at the same plants where Fender does their Mexican production.

❌SOLD❌ Relish Mary Solidbody Guitar NOS, Cream

On October 14, 2021 /

Here’s the last of our NOS – New Old Stock – Relish Mary models, this one in cream finish, Alder core and passive pickup system. Fairly new on the scene, Relish guitars are designed built in Switzerland, a little northwest of Lucerne. They are innovative in both design and choice of non-traditional materials and assembly methods. This example seen here is the Relish Mary model in the a cream white finish, equipped with two standard humbucking pickups. There are other Mary models with different center cores; here Alder is used to warm the tone. The place to start, however, is what makes these guitars innovative and distinct.

Fender Stratocaster Sunburst, 1958 (No Longer Available)

On October 5, 2021 /

Here we’re looking at a 1958 Fender Stratocaster in the then-new three-tone Sunburst finish, with neck and body dates of 12/58, indicating construction in December of 1958 or the beginning of 1959. In addition to the ‘new’ sunburst with the red band, the Maple neck became thinner with much less of a ‘V’ profile. From mid 1956, Fender started using Alder on sunburst-finished Stratocasters, rather than Ash. The neck remained the same, built of a single piece of Maple with a Walnut ‘Skunk Stripe’ covering the rear-mounted truss rod channel.

❌SOLD❌ Fender Stratocaster HardTail Black Refinish, 1977

On October 4, 2021 /

The Fender Stratocaster HardTail was available alongside the revolutionary and better known 1954 tremolo-equipped version, and only discontinued around 2010, due to declining sales. Many country and rhythm players preferred the Fender Stratocaster HardTail for perceived increases in ‘snap’, sustain and tonal separation, and a slightly ‘drier’ sound than comes from the lack of trem springs. While many players block or otherwise disable the Trem, hard tail Strats never sold like the trem versions have.
