I'm selling this beauty as i had some hurricane damage and the deductible is up there, so something has to go. It was built for me, by me. Using nothing but the best parts money can buy. The whole guitar is 7.5 lbs of tone, and it looks incredible. This guitar is on par with any 3k custom shop made Fender. It's a warmoth body and neck, shot in a killer gold flake. The electronics are the newest Fishman Fluance noiseless pickups with all the options they offer. Dual pull pots to go from 54 strat to late 59 SRV tones and more. It has the battery backplate system too. The neck is a huge warmoth 1 3/4 nut width 1 inch thick depth all the way down. The neck is finished in satin nitro, fast and non sticky. It has 2 string tree holes from where it had string tree's, but I removed them as it has custom fender machine heads that are staggered, so no trees needed. The bridge is a gotoh 510 steel bridge that is one of the best you can buy. It's used by most of the boutique builders out there. The tones out of this beauty are bell like clean tones to as nasty as you want with pedals, while being dead quiet at any volume. No buzzing here. Killer studio and stage guitar. It ships in a Fender Hardshell case. You simply won't find a better strat anywhere near this price. Lastly the body is routed from single or humbuckers from factory, and is
100% copper shielded too. Incredible job. Can that way from warmoth.
$895.00 shipped gets this killer!
Feel free to call me for more details
407-402-6970
Someone is going to be very very happy, as this is a true killer at a steal of a price.
The parts are worth more than the asking price by quite a bit. Oh, the pics don't do this guitar justice. Its a stunner in person. (SOLD)

The frets are actually medium and not as tall as they look. It plays great!

You are killing me, Orlando. !!!!!!

Does the battery backplate system boost the the signal?

Also, what is the function of the hole where the neck joins the body. Does it also adjust the truss road?

Excuse my ignorance.

The pups are active, thus need the battery power. Better than hiding as 9v batter under the guard, Fishman came up with the battery pack to make it east to charge and use. Also the hole is for a side truss rod adjustment warmoth uses, but I don't like them there, and it was protruding out, so I took it out, and only use the regular adjustment at the butt of the neck. This neck is so big, it does not move, lol.
You will not play or hear a better strat, at 3x the price. its truly a killer. Not to mention its stunning in person!

Before Orlando closes this post, I want to mention to those who have not dealt with him, that he is a seller you can trust if you buy his instruments etc., he will also keep you in the loop at all times. He is definitely of the Forum's very good guys.

I am speaking from experince of having had several positive transactions with Orlando.

Hope he keeps the photos of the post up so members can see the type of quality instruments he is selling.
