I bought this used Classic Vibe Strat used for $380 CAD. It was in terrible shape, both electrically and playbility. The action was basically good for slide guitar. The inside had randomly placed joints with electrical tape to achieve reverse phase. One of the orginal pickups was missing, and overall it was in terrible shape. The frets were all uneven and it simply needed everything redone. So I did that, and it was still cheaper than buying a brand new one:-) And mine is better than a new one now. It has all brand new premium cloth wiring, CTS pots, Orange Drop Cap, Switchcraft output jack and Oak Grigsby 5 way switch. The pickups are Tex Mex (used). The frets were levelled and crowned and the guitar was setup the way I like it to play:-)
