Asking $2500 while my total output into it is over $3000. This just isn't a art piece, you won't find a better playing and sounding strat anywhere.

Here are my expenses:

McCready Relic Process done by Vic Geanopulos of players guitar works- $1500

Stripped poly finish then did a new custom 3 tone burst finish with a nitrocellulous lacquer coating and then the exact McCready heavy relic.

These are the best relicers in the country

    Thanks man, I know it's pricey but it will definitely make a great centerpiece to someone's collection. I just really need to get an Avalon 737 preamp and Neumann u87 Mic for my studio.
