cant find any info on my fender squire strat?
ok so i have a fender squire strat made in japan I also typed in the serial number and found out it was made in the 70s but that's all i have found out. I would like to know how much i could sell it for. it seems pretty normal except the amp cord goes in weird. it doesn't plug into the front like a strat or a squire and it doesnt go in on the side like a tele it plugs in it plugs in on the side on the bottom left corner. i have never seen a fender like it there is no pick guard it is a cherry red color and it has a rosewood fret board it has 4 pick ups. this guitar sounds positively amazing so if anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it
Hello there,
I don't believe Fender started production in Japan until 1982. I think you may have dated your guitar incorretly. As far as I know, Fender did not make any Strats with 4 pickups. All the Stratocaster line uses the top loading football shaped pickup jack. There was a Squier Bullet made in Japan that had a Tele shaped body (with side jack) and a Strat shaped neck. Those all had 3 pickups. There was a second Squier Bullet that had a Strat shaped body (with a top loaded jack) and a Tele shaped neck. Those also had 3 pickups. Both style Bullets had models without pickguards.
Is your guitar stock? Or has it been modified to have 4 pickups? As I recall the early made in Japan Squier guitars were the E series (serial number starts with E).

iselling my fender strat?
I recently bought a p.o.s. made in mexico fender strat for 200 and I fixed it up back to factory specs black body rosewood fretboard with cream dots white 3-ply pickguard three single coil pickups the neck and middle are fender pickups and the bridge is a fernandez pickup it also has a fender synchronized trem too... it plays perfectly and I have just started to like my les paul better so I was wondering how much I could sell it for
I have an old fender strat Mexico (but purple) that I bought in a pawn shop for £160. Now its probably worthless, but yours (saying that it is perfect condition), you could probably break even, unfortunately they're are thousands of them out there.
I probably wouldn't sell it but that's just me.

Where can I buy a lefty acoustic guitar?
I want to find one at either target or walmart, i keep finding righty ones online. Should I call and ask?
i wouldn't go with a target or walmart kinda store(they're really crappy+I'm not sure they sell leftys), just go to websites like musicians friend, music 123, or same day music or even eBay and type in left handed acoustic and look at what they have, i wouldn't buy one that's too cheap(again probably a piece of crap)
go for one that's maybe 150-200 bucks and read reviews if they have them
also buy some new strings cause the ones that they come with usually suck

How to Properly Hold the Guitar and Play Like Professionals
It is easy and fun to play a guitar. You have to start learning the correct method of handling the instrument and you are on your way to play the guitar like professionals. Here are few tips on how you to properly hold the guitar:
Your fingers:
You have to bend your fingers of your left hand and your finger should be pressed down onto the guitar’s strings that are located on the “fret board”. The neck’s back should be curved, in order that the hand is molded into the neck’s shape.
It is alright for you to press or push the thumb at the back of the neck when creating your chords. This is common when one is “playing scales”. You have to test certain thumb positions so you will know which one you are most comfortable with.
You are just in the process of acquainting yourself with your instrument, so do not worry too much about the strings that the fingers of your left hand are pushing down at this time.
Your right arm and hand:
It is very crucial for you to use the correct hand position in guitar playing. If your hand is not in the correct position, you will face many problems such as it will be difficult for you to play particular chords, your hands will easily tire and you could even hurt or injure your hand if you continue playing using the wrong hand position.
Use your right hand to "strum" the guitar’s strings in order to produce the varying chord sounds. Rest your right hand and arm over your guitar. Let your bicep rest on the topmost part of the guitar’s body and the hand must be properly placed directly on top of your guitar’s sound hole (where sound will be produced). Just make sure that you are comfortable with your position.
If you are a left handed player, you have two alternatives. The first is to purchase a guitar that is right-handed then re-string it (reversing the sequence of the guitar’s strings), and the other option is to purchase a guitar that is specially made for people who are left-handed.
When seated in proper guitar position, you have to focus on your "fretting hand" or the hand that is near the guitar’s neck. Your fretting hand’s thumb must be resting at the back of the guitar’s neck, having your fingers positioned in a slightly curled manner, balanced on top of the strings. It is important to keep these particular fingers with a slight curl at your knuckles is very important.
Your body and posture:
You must be comfortably seated, resting your back adjacent to the backrest of your chair making sure that your legs are in front and feet flat on the ground. This position is now your "footing" or support that your guitar is going to rest upon.
Picking up the guitar, held it close to your chest or stomach ensuring that the back of the guitar’s body touches your chest and the neck’s bottom is parallel to the ground. The guitars thickest string must be directed close to the face and the thinnest string must be directed close to the ground.
Generally, a right-handed individual holds the guitar so that the “headstock” is pointing towards the left, while a left-handed individual holds the guitar so that the headstock is pointing to the right.
To play the guitar in a seated position, the guitar’s body should be resting on either one of your thighs. The instrument should be resting upon a leg that is farthest from “the headstock”; meaning, a right handed individual handling a guitar will naturally rest the instrument on his right leg, and a lefty will rest the instrument on his left leg.
There are still many things to be learned, many stages to go through, and practices to do before you to get the right tones and the right notes to play, so do not worry, when you can not play a good tune at this early stage. You are just beginning, so be patient.
The important factor here is that you can comfortably hold the guitar and be at ease with it. The rest of techniques still to be learned will just automatically flow, at your fingertips!
Cost to have a luthier build a custom lefty model of a signature guitar?
I absolutely love synyster gates's black shecter custom guitar but it only comes in righty models so I would think the only option would be to have a luthier create a lefty replica. The original costs $999. How much more would it cost from the luthier?
I'm not absolutely certain that such a cost by a luthier would run $10,000 as mentioned by Tinpanalleycat, but the expense would certainly be at least double the price of the standard manufactured product.
Nevertheless, be prepared to shell out bigger bucks for it.
Note: Your question is refreshing as it is a cut above most other questions about the guitar.
