Freshly set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech, this vintage Strat is dialed in and ready to join you onstage at your next gig. In Very Good vintage condition with scratches, nicks, and natural aging of hardware and parts. Body has been refinished in Surf Green. There also appears to be remnants of overspray on the fingerboard. Some shrinkage and deterioration of the original pickguard and backplate (see photos). The post on the G tuning key is missing part of its post but still functions.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:

We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.

We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
