hey guys. I need some help with the estimation of my 80s style strat value. I'm planning to sell it. Unfortunately I have no clue what price I can charge for this. On top of it I won't be able to ship outside the EU. Guess that shrinks the market and will affect the calculations, too.

Here are some specs:

- serial number 8174
- ash-body
- bolt-on birdseye maple neck and fretboard
- 22 jumbo-frets
- Bare Knuckle Painkiller humbucker in burnt chrome
- Sperzel locking tuners
- Gotoh Floyd with brass tone-block

The instrument is in near-mint condition as I took care of it really well. You might like some pics as well:

Well, I have no idea how the market is in Europe, but across the pond it is really hit or miss. I've seen things here go far lower than they should, and some go for outrageous prices. The figuring on that neck is absolutely perfect, so that may very well drive your sale to a fair price, but it is really difficult to make any prediction in this economy.. Good luck...
