ESP 'TRADITIONAL' STRATOCASTER (NOT LTD) - $775 in Sudbury, Ontario for sale

If this ad is up, the guitar is still available. I will not respond to emails asking if it is still available.


This all-original 1992 ESP 'Traditional' Strat-style guitar was crafted in Japan by the same luthiers that make the ultra-expensive ESP Signature models (Lynch, Hammett, etc.). It is in excellent condition with only a few minor scratches on the body.

FEATURES:
- Solid Alder body with deep contours
- Beveled neck joint for maximum comfort
- Quarter-sawn (60's style D-shaped) maple neck
- Locking Sperzel tuners
- Medium frets (in excellent condition)
- Abalone fret markers

This guitar plays like a dream. The ultra-light weight (under 8 lbs), deep vintage-style contours and low action make it very comfortable.

The tones are as good as any Fender Strat you'll ever hear. I've owned several Fender Custom Shop Strats and still have a couple (for now). I've also owned several regular production line (made in USA) Fender Strats, as well as similar guitars by Hamer, G&L and several other manufacturers. I've sold almost all of them but kept this one for as long as I have (over 20 years) because it's just that good. The build quality of this guitar (including the fit, finish, attention to detail, playability, etc.) is in the same league as Fender Custom Shop guitars. Don't believe me? Please feel free to come on over and compare it with my Fenders!

By the way, not all ESP players are shredders. Have a look at the last picture!

Currently, ESP Strats crafted in Japan have a retail of over $2300US.

This one is priced very reasonably for $775 FIRM. You will not find a better playing/sounding Strat for under $1000.


I will only accept CASH and my price is firm. I will ignore/delete/block any emails requesting a lower price or possible trades.
