Fender ROLAND Ready GC-1 White Stratocaster Clean 13-Pin MIDI PU Strat 26926

Description
You're looking at a 1999 Fender GC-1 Roland ready Stratocaster in white finish. This is the second year of production for this model and is now 22 years vintage. Plays with all the advantages of a standard Strat with the added bonus of a 13-pin jack that enables you to connect via MIDI to various Roland synth units. Maple neck, rosewood fretboard. Frets show some grooving and wear but it's still quite playable.

Cosmetically, this GC-1 is very clean for its age. Hardly any marks. The white finish is starting to "pink," kind of like old Pelham Blue going green. You have to look at it in just the right light to see it, but the color is changing with age. The guitar will come set up and ready to play. Weight is 7 pounds, 5 ounces. No case or tremolo bar. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking!

Additional Info
Equipped with a GK-2 Roland pickup, this unique model Strat is an awesome player that manages to do even more than the already versatile Stratocaster typically does. The electronics system allows the player complete control of their sound, fitted with dual outputs (1/4” and 13-pin) and the ability to play through them independently or simultaneously. The 5-way switch grants the player access to all the Stratocaster tones they know and love, while the Roland GK-2 enabled pickup affords endless midi possibilities.

Guitar Setup
All setups are done by our in-house luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!

Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
