Hi!

Fender Strat in brown, Everything plays fine and looks lovely, although there is a tiny bit of wear on the bottom of the guitar (unfortunately none of the pictures illustrate this), I am selling this for someone else, so I don't know too much about it or have any more pictures other than the ones below.

T'was bought for £650 i believe, so i am looking for about 475. Any interest?

My guitarist might be interested. Can we get a pic of the Custom Shop Neckplate.

Unfortunately I can't get a picture of the neckplate yet, as it is at my brother's, but i'll try to get one in the next few days.

I'm afraid that he is really only looking for a straight sale.

Not necessarily :) The OP's bro probably bought it as a CS / 60th in good faith. (As may have been the case with whoever sold it to [i]them[/i]). Even so, the serial dates it to 2005/6 out of Corona which puts it in the ballpark for a 60th designation. Some 60th Highways came out with standard size H/S's (2005-2006 production) and large headstocks were intro'd later during 2006.

If it were a CS, however, it would probably also have a CS logo on the headstock rear apart from any other indicators. The '60' badge on the H/S rear looks like the one that went on the MIM 60 rather than the all-engraved badge used on the USA standard, though these may have been applied to H'Way 1's. There were various Anni models floating around in 2006 - MIM, H'Way 1, USA Standard, CS. The USA Standard carried a diamond logo on the H/S front. The CS was a single finish option, IIRC - sort of winey red trans over flame, standard size H/S.

And even if it is a Highway they're very nice guitars - way better than MIM's and IMO more characterful than the US Standard.

yeah might not be a highway indeed but its definetly not a custom shop model. can't agree with your last comment though some of the ones I have played are planks of wood
