Hi guys!

I found an AVRI '57 Strat used and i want your opinions!

I don't know anything about them..

So, first of all i want to help me find out, if is all original avri and what's its value.

There is a SN V100xxx on the neckplate.

Some bad points: Not genuine pickups and electrics.. :(
Also the guitar was refretted with Jumbo frets (by a professional).

The seller says that is a 1998 model (from the neckdate).

The color is inca silver and that's why i have doubts if is all original.
Was the inca silver available at the 1998 avri?

Also, i read that the avri don't have a stripe at the neck.. (this one has)
Is this correct?

Is it genuine avri? Is it worth buying?
And if so, what would be a correct price?

Any other things i must check?

Here are some pics from the guitar:

Hi alexisgt,

From what few details are shown, it looks legit ('57 RI, before the change of the twelfth fret dot spacing). Only the rosewood versions ('62 RI) have no skunk stripe on the back of the neck, the maple versions do have it.

Considering the info that you've given, and the condition, I'd say around $600 would be fair, maybe more if it comes with a case.
