Ive got an '88 American Standard Telecaster that needs a new home. It would come with everything that you need to get going since I dont play anymore. If youre interested or know anyone who might be, drop me a note. Its a really nice set up. Heres the ad:
"I used to play a decent amount but have since basically stopped and its just sitting in its case so its time for it to go. This is a black w/ white guard 1988 American Standard Telecaster (made in the USA, not Japan or Mexico). The story behind the guitar is that it was bought new in 1988 by someone who was going to join a band, it never happened so the guitar was put into the closet. Sold in 2000 to me. I have the original strap, Fender plastic case and the inspection tag still. I played it for a while but never seriously and have since gotten distracted by other stuff so the guitar does not get played at all. It still looks brand new with hardly any marks or scrapes on the face, guard or the back of the guitar. It has been recently restrung with light strings and plays very nice with a great action. The pictures below can give you an idea of its condition. Since I am looking to sell the guitar, I wont need any of the other stuff either so I would like to sell it as a package. If youre looking to start playing, this is a great package for you.
- TKL hardcase with storage area in it. Case will come with capo, cable, picks (I believe they are Dunlop Orange), and Korg tuner
- Original Fender strap (in picture)
- Dunlop Crybaby Wah pedal
- Boss distortion/ compression pedal
- 1960s Gibson G50 reverb amp. Everything works on it. Reverb is adjustable in speed and intensity. Great sound with dual pole switch to help filter out noise from the outlet. Case is in good shape with just a few small missing/ torn spots in the black vinyl wrap. Its a solid state amp, not tube but it is an early example. Can get very loud so I hardly used it.
- A few extra cables with the pedals
So, this is everything that you need to get started. Looking to get $800, or best realistic offer, for the whole package. Not really that interested in breaking anything up and would like to sell it as a package. You wont be disappointed."
Let me know. Not quite as earth shaking as Eds "selling the 40" thread but its pretty nice and needs a good home.
