Info: This is a Japanese crafted Fender brand 50’s series from the 90’s, it has features of the 1950 American made Stratocasters. The neck is a soft V, vintage bridge pieces, tuners, the great deep cut contour, and upgraded electronics with CTS 250K pots, and USA Fender Custom Shop Fat 50’s pickups. It sounds, looks, and plays great. This is NOT a pristine instrument, it has multiple dings all over, because it’s a working musicians guitar. I tried to shoot some of the dings in the pictures but they don’t show because they’re not thru the paint. The body is light and craftmanship is comparable to USA made. Tone Quest Report–THE bible for guitar tone highly rates these guitars as a great basis for upgrades, as this one has been done–check it out on the internet.
There is some fret wear but does affect the playability of this great instrument. Comes with a Fender brand gig bag that is in very good condition. Don’t BID if you a person that “catches” buyer’s remorse, because there is no return. The neck is good and straight—I have this exact neck on 2 other guitars–both USA made guitars. It has the spagetti Fender Logo and the round button string retainer. I paid $115 for the pickups and they are a great complement to the rest of the guitar–the perfect upgrade with the electronics. Look at the side view 3rd picture for the deep contour cut view. Very similar to the Eric Johnson at a fourth of the price! Don’t miss it if you want a solid, great looking and sounding player. NO foreign buyers DON’T waste time asking, 48 USA continental states only. Foreign bidders will be rejected. Ask questions if you need more info. Notice that it’s a 5 day auction, check my feedback and don’t bid if you’re foreign or have negative or low (under 5) feedback. I took the pictures before I notice that I left two of the knobs off, but they will be included, I’m too lazy to re-shoot and upload. I also will have a professional shipper to package this guitar to insure that it’s done right. This will have a fresh new set of Ernie Ball 10-46 Regular Slinky strings. I have it for sale locally, so I reserve the right to cancel the auction if I sell it here.

This has a single ply pickguard, and aged yellowed pickup covers. The Japanese made Fender brand Strats are superior to the Mexican made Strats. The candy apple red paint really “pops”! It stays in tune and plays great. Search for Tone Quest magazine article on this guitar, they consider this a great bargain, and describe it in detail. … Click For More Info
