I buy used guitars from time to time, but I always try to make sure the seller is the guy who actually owns and plays it. Ten years ago I got my 1999 American Strat from a guy who played in a skittle/ska band, and it had a ton of nice upgrades like noiseless pickups, locking tuners and graphite saddles. Young guy had a wife and baby and it was pretty clear the wife had decided his pursuit of the dream needed to end. He showed me pictures of him playing gigs with it, and asked me to take care of it. I gave him full asking price.

The Strat looks nice with the tweed and sounds terrific.
Lake Placid Blue? The best of ALL Strat colors!
