Just sold my Strat
« on: June 05, 2010, 02:17:18 PM »
That's it, it's gone. Got a little less than I was looking for but that's the way it goes. I'm actually not missing (or regretting) it yet and I don't think I will. Since having a tele again and being able to A/B it with the strat I must say that I feel much more at home on the tele. Not sure why, I just seem to run out of ideas of what to play when I have the strat but have no such problems with the tele.

I may well go for a CS Tele (or top bound esquire) when I get some more cash together to be able to buy a higher end guitar. For the time being I am very happy with my Baja, selling the strat also means that I am now more than likely going to be able to keep the Deluxe.
I think I hate being indecisive.

Must admit Ian, I thought you'd sold it ages ago.  It seems to be a tough market at the moment.

Glad you're happy with the Tele anyway!

Cheers Philly - a very tough market indeed. Particularly for the more expensive stuff. Good luck with your sales!

Glad it worked out OK for you mate, but gutted you had to sell it.

I'm still trying to sell my bike and a couple of guitars - the market is tough for anything nice  :(

Glad you managed to get close to what you wanted for the Strat.  Hopefully you will have some joy selling the laney soon has well. 

I agree with Pilly it is a real buyers market at the moment. 

Hope you manage to hold on to the deluxe. :D

Yeah sold my strat year ago and never looked back. Only part i miss is the sentimental value for me and the killer neck but that's how it goes =) Tele's are just so much better! And then jaguars/jazzmasters are always a tasty addition =)
=) Cheers and God bless =)

If music was a beast, i'd have the sweetest saddle =)

Try selling something with issues; that market is r-r-r-r-really tough.
