Detail cleaned and professionally set up 2015 Squier Classic Vibe Stratocaster – watch the full preparation video!

Classic Vibes are great guitars, period. Excellent quality bodies, nice necks, good fretwork and nice pickups. All they lack it the final detailed preparation and professional set up to make the most of their potential

This lovely Classic Vibe Strat has been stripped to component level and rebuilt with with an upgraded spec:

• 7.25” radius neck with maple fretboard
• Ash 2 tone sunburst Body
• Upgraded later Classic Vibe HSS pickups
• Upgraded vintage style locking tuners

The guitar is in excellent condition following my meticulous re process:

• Full Strip down and Deep Clean
• Full body machine polish and wax
• Electrical clean
• Frets optimised – spot levelled & crowned, ends dressed and polished
• Nut optimised
• Restring (Ernie Ball 10's)
• Full set up (relief, action, nut, pickups, intonation)
• Plays beautifully as a result!

There are a couple of tiny scratches around the body, a small finish chip on the headstock and a small chip on the fingerboard which you can see me repair in the video. Excellent condition for a 12 year old guitar.

Please watch the YouTube video linked below which captures the restoration work and current condition of this guitar in full detail.

Overall, this really is a lovely and beautifully prepared guitar, ready to go.

My pricing includes postage to mainland UK (but I cannot ship internationally, sorry). It will be sent using a Parcelforce safely packed in a proper guitar box.  Alternatively, it can be supplied inside a brand new hard case for an additional £50 – message me first if you want to do that.

So – I never claim my guitars are the cheapest of their model available, and let’s face it, there are often plenty of options. But used guitars are a bit of a lottery and are rarely properly set up and sadly very often in poor condition. 

If you want one where you can watch the video and see how  it has been professionally prepared, which has been thoroughly cleaned of many years worth of other people’s grime, had upgrades, fret and nut optimisation and been restrung and fully set up so it plays and feels like the guitar you hoped it would be out of the box, this is excellent value.
