I have only made one purchase from Elderly Instruments, but I was very pleased with the experience. Not a chain, Elderly has been in the musical instrument selling business for 48 years. I learned of them through a friend who is a semi-professional musician who bought her acoustic guitar through them. I digress.
I saw today that a new arrival is a 1983 Fender Stratocaster Elite. It's an attractive green alder body, maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, and three Elite single coil pickups with push on/off buttons for each pickups, TBX and active boost controls, and a “Freeflyte” top load tremolo.
Elderly is asking US$2,000, including a newer 80’s Fender case. I don't have a green guitar, and this isn't Sea-Foam, but a green not identified. If the price were a little lower, I'd consider it... Condition = "Excellent-minus."
