Hi, I'm considering buying a 1999-2000 MIM Strat in Brown Sunburst. It has a serial# of MN9342996. It is in good condition. It has a rosewood fretboard, 3 single-coil pickups that the owner says are '62 reissues. He has just had it professionaly set-up. What would be a fair offer/price for this guitar?

Yep, case is included. He says he's had an offer of 250.00. Think I ought to pass on it?

Its 10 years old and the newer MIMs are (much) better...I payed $300, in a store, for a perfect used '09 last year (in '09).

If it's in good shape it may be worth $250 with the case...a new one is $400 right?

What were you going to offer?

New ones going for about 499.00.

Is it a gig bag or a hard shell case?

If you can confirm that the pups are 62 reissues $250 with the case would be a fair price.I have a "00 MIM Strat and it sings with just the stock pups on it.
