Check new prices with an authorised dealer first

Before spending hundreds, possibly thousands, on a used Fender guitar we recommend checking NEW prices with our partners at Gear4Music. We sometimes see pre-owned items sell for MORE than the price of a brand new one – for that reason please check prices at G4M first. For example their lowest priced Strat is currently the Fender Player Stratocaster in Black available for £583. Or how about the classic Fender Vintera 60s Strat PF in 3-Tone Sunburst for just £754 (prices correct in April 2021) >> check NEW prices now at Gear4Music
