Hey all,

Looking to buy another Strat (and peeved that the AS strat is only maple is SSS) and this time I want a SSS as I have a HSS in rosewood.

Seen this on gumtree, not sure if the neck has been changed or if its stock?? Plus does anyone know how much they are worth? In my country the American Special retails at $1200 and this advertiser is asking $1200 if that helps.

Any info would be great.

This guitar *resembles* a MIM '70s Classic Strat in all respects. I would request additional photos for provenance before buying it.

I think it's a MIM 70's classic series too.

$1200 seems alright for Australia, however you could do better on the price tho.. Over here you can buy a MIM classic 60's for NZ$1300 new on special

So do our prices. You have to remember our dollar is weaker than the AU dollar. However, you can really find a jem if you are prepared to look.

I've done some research for you..

Personally, I think you would be better off with the above. It's brand new and the warranty stands. It also has Texas specials. These guys seem to have reasonable prices too..

They did an AVRI 70s Strat a couple of years ago.

There's no American Vintage Deluxe - unless you're referring to the FSR Deluxe Vintage Players from 2005 which were essentially American Vintage guitars loaded with many of the features found on the American and American Deluxe series models.
