1983 / 1984 Fender Stratocaster Elite Electrical Components
Complete, all-original Fender USA factory parts

The term "rare" isn't strong enough to describe this set of Fender parts. Pulled from a 1984 Strat Elite, this is a complete set of ALL of the electrical components (except the pickups). These used vintage parts work as well as new.
 All the parts are original Fender Fullerton components. I usually sell these parts separately, but since soldering the board, pots, etc. together is such a major pain in the BUTT on this guitar model, I've decided to cut my customers a break and sell the complete set of parts. Whether you are replacing a dead MRB board, or doing a complete restoration, this repair kit will save you hours of labor. 

Parts Included:
* Fender Stratocaster Elite MRB Preamp board
* Fender USA 1 Meg-Ohm Audio-Taper Volume Pot
* Fender USA TBX Tone Pot
* Fender USA 250k MRB Boost Pot
* Big, fat, orange 22 mfd. 200 VDC capacitor
* TBX pot resistor
* (3) Alps pickup switches
* Much of the original wiring (still connected)
* All mounting hardware included

Condition:
Tested and cleaned, all of the parts work as well as new.


Installation Notes:
A fairly simple swap for all 1983 and 1984 Stratocaster Elites - except forthe pickup switches. All of the parts are pre-wired except for the jack (which I had to unsolder to remove from the  Elite). Since most of the wires are still connected to the pots, the only soldering you will have to do is to connect the pickups and re-connect the output jack.
Note that
the pickup switches are not easy to solder the pickups to. They have fragile little solder points that are easy to wreck. Don't even think of doing this installation yourself unless you have lots of soldering experience and the proper low-wattage, fine-point soldering iron. I highly recommend you take this to a pro who knows how to solder small, delicate parts. Do it yourself and you assume all risk - these parts are sold strictly as-is, with no returns or refunds. Also note that you must have an original Fender USA Elite pickguard with the switch mounting receptor on it to install the switches. Email me if you don't know what that means!

The price includes:
All the parts listed above. See my other listings for other Elite parts - and for the same repair kit for a Telecaster Elite!
Sold "AS-IS" - no refunds or returns on this item. 


Why buy from me? Some might think my descriptions are a little too verbose, but I believe in giving a potential buyer all the information I have about an item - with many high-quality photos to show you EXACTLY what I have to offer. I also pack my items very well with recycled packaging and ship quickly. Unlike my competition, I'm not a faceless business but a life-long guitarist who can give you the personal touch. Most important of all, I'm always happy to share my years of knowledge and help my customers with their parts installation - just email and I'll respond as quickly as I can.

Thanks for looking!



Shipping in the USA - This item will ship via the US Postal Service with insurance and tracking.

Shipping out of the USA - This item will ship via ebay global shipping - click on the "Shipping and Payments" tab to see your total imported cost, including your country's duties and taxes. Please be patient, and allow 3-4 weeks for delivery.

International Shipping Notes - READ THIS if you are not in the USA! - I will declare the actual sale value for customs. In fact, there is no way for sellers to change the value with ebay global shipping. ebay calculates the duties or taxes your country charges and adds them to the shipping amount. If you are thinking about buying more than one item from me, email me first - ebay global shipping may not allow you to combine items to save on shipping costs. I sympathize with those who pay high taxes and shipping costs, but please don't ask for other intl. shipping options if you pay with Paypal - I won't respond to such emails. Be aware that some countries will take up to a month to process your imported item, so be patient, or call your country's customs dept. instead of mailing me. I have no idea what happens to your package after it leaves the USA. I do not ship to Italy, Argentina, Venezuela, or any countries with unreliable postal services. Finally, I will not accept returns from outside of the USA for any reason, and by buying this item you accept that condition. If that makes you wary, check my excellent eBay feedback - much of it from non-USA buyers.

Why ebay shipping costs have become more expensive - It's not just higher costs from the shipping companies. Thank FeeBay, for charging sellers a final value fee on shipping (!!), which forces sellers to raise our shipping costs to buyers. At least 13% of your shipping costs go to eBay and Paypal. If you are ordering from out of the USA, even more goes to eBay global shipping, and to YOUR country's duties and taxes. So, please send your complaints about high shipping costs to ebay, Paypal and the USPS - not to me. I don't make money on shipping my items.



My return policy and listing terms


It's not easy to see when you cruise a listing, but I go through a lot of trouble to honestly describe and picture my items in ebay to (hopefully) make returns unnecessary.

Here's my reasonable return and refund policy:

* Please read the listing carefully in its entirety before bidding or buying - people who don't are the people who tend to return items.
* Items sold "as-is", mean exactly that: no returns for ANY reason. Most of my items are NOT sold as-is.
* I will not accept returns from outside of the USA for any reason.
* This policy is non-negotiable, and by bidding or buying you agree to it.


EBAY LISTING TERMS:
* Before you bid or buy, make sure you truly want and are prepared to pay for the item immediately. This is not a lot to ask!
* Payment is required within 24 hours unless previous arrangements have been made.
* If I don't receive payment or at least an email from the high bidder within 48 hours, the item will be sold to the second high bidder or relisted.
* Shipping costs are not negotiable, except for multiple items shipped together. Email if you have a question about combined shipping costs.
* If you have any questions, please ask them before the listing ends. Read the listing before emailing me - chances are your answer is already there!
* I do not participate in ebay's bogus + corrupt feedback system. If you want some feedback anyway, leave it for me and I'll return the favor.
* Those who leave negative feedback or file an ebay complaint without even contacting me to resolve a problem can expect zero support afterwards.
* New ebay users with zero feedback: please contact me before bidding. If you don't your bid may be canceled.
* Please don't make me illicit offers to sell off-ebay through ebay! Although I often sell through other websites, I will not respond to any offers made here for items I have for sale on ebay (except for ebay items listed with the "Best Offer" option).
* I reserve the right to cancel bids and ignore emails from the mentally disturbed.


Thanks to all my customers, I now have over 1500 successful ebay transactions.
YOUR business is greatly appreciated!
