How much could I fetch for a used Fender American Standard Strat?

I have only played it a few times and has two minor p.aint scratches that i'm looking to get repaired|||Hello there,





The price of course depends on the year, the features, the body color, maple or rosewood fretboard and most of all the condition. I looked at the lowest recent sales from eBay to give you an idea of the bottom line to realistically expect. Those ran from $399 (with free shipping and up. Here are some examples of the lower sales prices.





$395 plus shipping:

Those are the American Strats that brought the least in the recent sales. You can look around at the other closed sales to find a guitar that matches yours more closely to get a better idea of the price to expect.





Later,|||Even with the paint scratches you can ask $800, maybe as high as $900 depending on the year and pick-ups. Don't try to sell it at a music store though, they will not give you anywhere near that amount because that is what they will sell it for, they have to make a profit. Check out used prices on Guitar Center's web-site to give yourself an idea of what to ask, then post it on a classifieds site like craigslist with lots of pics.|||Depends on the condition and how good it still sounds. You could possibly get someone to buy it for $1,000, but since it's used, it's unlikely. New Fender Strats run at about $1,700 or $1,800 so don't expect anything over 1 grand for a used one.|||I'd ask at least $899. Depends on the pickups, year, how old it is etc.
