Squier Affinity "Copperhead" Strat electric guitar - custom cosmetic upgrade

Offered is a cosmetically upgraded 2008 made in China Squier Affinity Strat.  Arctic White with a gold pearloid pickguard and a painted headstock -- hammered copper with a Fender logo added.  Football jack plate is also painted hammered copper.  Nice C-profile neck with a semi-gloss finish.  The Squier serial number has been left on...this is clearly not a Fender and I'm not looking to create counterfeit guitars.  Just something cool for the mid-level middle class.
Minor skuffs, but overall in very good condition, with really nice paint.  The white and gold/copper is a killer color combination.  A cool-looking and distinctive Strat that plays and sounds great.  It even sounds nice unplugged.  There are a zillion Strats out there....you will have the only one that looks like this.  The China-made Squiers were pretty solid in 2008.  All the usual Strat features, and everything works as it should.  This is one you can plug in and play out with and not worry about.  
Missing the whammy bar, and the back plate is not the original one (all the screw holes don't line up).  I usually take these off because they are a nuisance more than anything, but I figured I'd put one on and let you decide.  It is held on securely with two screws, but I didn't want to drill extra holes for this.  Not a big deal, but if you're fussy about your guitars, keep that in mind.  Guitar stand is NOT included.
Shipping will be $30.00 to the continental US.  If you are outside that area, please contact me for a shipping quote.

IMPORTANT:  A few words on shipping here, because a few people have unfairly dinged me on feedback recently.  I ALWAYS ship within 48 hours, and 99% of the time within 24 hours of payment (there is no shipping on Sundays, sometimes Monday is a holiday, and sometimes we get hurricanes or blizzards in NY...contrary to the saying, rain & sleet & heat & gloom DOES sometimes stay those couriers).  I ALWAYS insure the item to protect both of us.  I ALWAYS provide a tracking number.  And I ALWAYS do what I can to keep the shipping prices reasonable.  That being said:
* Cheaper shipping means slower shipping.  I keep it cheap because I like it cheap on the things I buy and I rarely need items immediately.  However, if you want it quickly and are willing to pay the extra shipping, that can easily be done.  When I offer free shipping, I use parcel post (which is slower), and that is mentioned in the listing (eBay requires it).  Again, if you want to pay the additional cost for faster shipping, just let me know.
* Me taking it to the post office within 24 hours and the post office taking a week (or more) to deliver it is NOT slow shipping on my part.  Again, if you want it quickly and are willing to pay the premium, just let me know.  All I can do as a seller is take it to the post office quickly, after that it is out of my control.
* I insure EVERYTHING for full value.  This protects both of us.  However, if the box gets crunched or ripped, that is not bad shipping on my part.  All items are professionally packed, and insured.  That is all I can do as a seller...once I drop it off, it is out of my control.  If something happens along the way, YOU are completely covered.  I can't guarantee that nothing will happen, only that if something DOES go wrong that you are covered.  
* Please add in extra time for anything crossing an ocean.  Unless you are paying for priority shipping, there are many factors that affect shipping overseas, none of which I have any control over.

Most buyers are pretty reasonable, and I am happy to do whatever I can to accommodate buyers anywhere in the world.  But If you do NOT agree with the above, please bid on/buy someone else's item and not this.  I would rather take less money than deal with unreasonable expectations.
I take both buying & selling VERY seriously, as evidenced by a 100% feedback rating in more than 2,500 transactions over 15 years.  But I do not have 100% control from my door to yours.
