FS: the BeerCaster AGAIN

ok so I swore to not bump this at all but I need money for a new automobile to replace my 14 year old Celica. Though it has served me well, its about time to move on. from the original post.

So its hard to put this one on the block but it is a must. I dont play it because im still in love with my other build. (I never liked strats or strat shaped guitars anyway unless it was a bass, but I prefer firebird basses anyway) But here we go.

the 195BeerCaster:




Specs:
NECK:
-Warmoth made Maple/bloodwood neck
-25-1/2 scale with 22 frets
- Chunky (but not too chunky) Boat ("V") contour
-Neck finished with tru-oil and polished with amber butchers wax for a satin finish and a real smooth, natural feel

BODY & ELECTRONICS:
-Basswood body with real genuine beer labels!
-Bareknuckle brown sugar tele neck pickup
-GuitarForce Rebelfire humbucker bridge pickup
-Great sounds seperate ,an AWESOME sound combined. One of my personal favorites for clean to dirty blues
-All CTS full sized 500k pots with switchcraft 3 way toggle and ouput jack

Note: There is no wear anywhere on this (frets etc) and there are now black speed knobs on the guitar that arnt present in the pictures.

I'm also going to take some newer better pictures some time this week, outside in the sun.

Price: well this is a bit up in the air. I put $700 into this just alone for the quality parts to make this thing feel and sound right. This doesnt include any of the work I put into this for building and final fit and finish.

Im putting this up for $600 OBO with a free pro set up (I can either set it to a good low action set up or the buyer can give me more specific details after buying.
This is more than a fair price to buy and scrap out for parts alone. But I hope you dont do that, this is a way good player and I want to have the guitars Ive built out there and hopefully kick up some business for me and my shop. One guy taking a chance then spreading the word of the caliber of instrument he got can go pretty far. I have a couple of guys here that I sold guitars / amps that I customized or did extensive work to one way or another and they do not regret it.

once again $600 OBO with a free pro set up

NEW PRICE IS $500 SOLID

thats rock bottom and I really cant go lower guys.

also check out my other sale.

thanks for looking guys

Re: FS: the BeerCaster AGAIN

I have been kicking around the idea od buying this thing since you first posted it eons ago.

It is a really cool project and I think I am going to make one myself this winter--

Bump for a very unique and cool guitar--Your choice of pickups is great as well--

sounds about right I guess people just dont trust names they dont know. Ive had one guy ready to buy but then he broke his leg and needed money for that, and some other interest here and there but thats about it.

Re: FS: the BeerCaster AGAIN

yeah they are sealed in and wont come off. you wet them so they go on flat and stick. let them dry then go at it. they wont come off unless you sand through or destroy the top finish.
