1999 Impelletteri Fender
1999 Chris Impelletteri signature strat. Only made in Japan as a custom order. Not too many around. I searched the net, and couldn't find another one in the US. The only other one that I saw, and that's actually for sale right now for $1500, is in Australia here:
$1500
"Fender Stratocaster 68' Reissue. 2000 model. Here is a hard to get Fender Japan 'Chris Impellitteri' model that is just an incredible instrument in looks, feel and playability. It has features that normally only go from the USA custom shop/special order guitars. It has an incredible resonant alder body that even sounds great when not plugged in. The neck join is super tight giving the instrument brilliant sustain and tone with a 4 bolt fastening. It has the large Headstock and a rosewood board which is great, as the reissue 68's only came in maple necks. The frets are Dunlop jumbos and the 21st fret is scalloped. Gold hardware adornes that is present with most high end Fender Japan models. Pickups are wonderful with the bridge pick-up being a Fender USA Texas special that has been overwound for incredibally hot vintage twang. The middle and neck pickups are Fenders Vintage 'Noiseless', that were designed to capture the classic Fender sound without the noise that dogs other pickups. It comes with Fender's Deluxe Gig bag.
Price: AU$1,995.00"
Other then a few edge chips on mine, it's in fine shape, especially for......................................$325 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
