NOTE: Any reply without "Ash" in the subject line will not be read and deleted. Reply with a local contact number and town you live in. Cash Only and you must pick it up here. No Returns, please be sure you want this guitar before buying it. NOTE * Comes with Fender case & keys. Tremolo arm is included. Sorry someone took the wrenches and black pouch with the paperwork when they were visiting. This is one of the guitars made for the official 2017 release. The frets on this are perfect. I didn’t buy this guitar to play. I got it specifically to take pictures of it for note cards and display prints. Total playtime of maybe 1 hour, (That’s less time than a music store display model). It lives in its case in a closet, non-smoking, no pets household. I take it out every week to look it over and put it back. There’s plenty of music store YouTube videos of this model for you to look at. I loosened the strings to include some pictures of the frets. I’m not connected 24/7 to the internet. I don’t use a smartphone and I check emails/listing when I’m on the computer, which may not be every day. In 2020 Fender announced that it is discontinuing the use of ash on the bodies of its production-line guitars. Fender's Executive Vice President of Product, Justin Norvell, revealed that the difficult decision was made largely because of the Emerald Ash Borer beetle, a non-native invasive pest that has been destroying the unique "swamp ash" found in the American South - favored by Fender for its distinctive qualities. Where I live here in Connecticut, the Emerald Ash Borer beetle, a non-native invasive pest destroyed the ash trees., so I've personally seen the damage on a large scale. Fender switched to roasted pine for production guitars that were previously ash. They still offer alder bodies on production guitars. This is a fair price since I've seen older 2007 - 2011 American Standard Stratocasters and telecasters in fair to good condition going for $1200 - $1600+. It can be purchased with a new Fender Studio 40 amp to replicate that 60's/70's era sound while being able to direct out to PA or software. Guitar $1200 - Guitar with amp $1,500 - Amp only $300 - Guitar plus amp plus all books $1700 *Large collection of new guitar books. Tariffs are now increasing prices on imports. This could trigger a few different things on music gear prices. Imports will be the same price as American made or sometimes more. It could also set off a price increase on American made gear making production models the same price as custom shop models were 5+ years ago. We are in some turbulent times.
