Considering there are another two MK strats on ebay right now. I would like to offer mine here for £1000, £200 cheaper than the ebay price. The neck plate has been replaced which I have reflected in the price. Let me know if you are interested. Ideally in the UK (easier and less expensive to post) cheers

Name added to the list.
Have you contacted Fender with regards date of manufacture?

Presuming it will be a July 2003 but I am just interested to see what Fender say.
There have been instances of low Serial numbers being manufactured with a later date than others.

  :o No, Encore are about as low as you can go on the Strat copy ladder.   It would appear that using Fender strings makes it all OK ! :smack

Finally managed to track one down, and of course that same week found another as well  ;D .  I guess when it rains it pours.  One is brand new with a late serial number that I lucked into (collecting dust in in a small guitar shop from the US.  The other from a local buy and sell website with serial number 393 that was originally purchased in Late 2003 according to the seller.

The 2003 early serial number guitar came in a Brown Fender G&G vintage case and the other one in a Black Fender G&G case.  Now I have my one to play and one to never touch lol. 

All thats left is trying to get one or both signed when I see him in concert later this year.  3 shows, 3 tickets, 3 chances...Fingers crossed for me

Wow, a first for the list in that you are a 'duo' MK Strat owner - good for you :clap... (One more to get to join the 'trio' club!!!)
(Maybe email Fender to get 'proper' dates for them)
Good luck getting them signed, it's well worth it if you can!! ;)

What is the 'newer' Strat's serial No. - so I can add it to the list! :wave

Better to buy two 'regular' Martins, or even three. Complete waste of money for collectors, nothing more.
