Description
Condition: This is a great playing Strat in very clean shape for its age! There are various scratches nicks, dings and dents throughout the instrument; the heaviest of which are on the top and back near the bottom. Some dings have been covered up with a very small amount of paint (see photos). There is a small crack in the wood by the treble side bridge post. This is holding together fine showing no movement and does not affect playability or sound. Fingerboard and frets have moderate play wear with some heavier wear towards the lower registers. The neck is very straight and the truss rod and neck tilt adjustment function fine. There is a small chip on the b string slot on the nut though it does not affect playability or sound. A couple of small wood dowels have been added to the lower bass side neck bolt as it was not holding the wood securely. The dowels have resulted in a much more firm grip. Strap buttons are unoriginal. All electronics and parts are in perfect working condition.
Body: Solid contoured ash body in a beautiful Sienna Sunburst finish. Top-load Freeflyte bridge with six individual saddles and a vibrato arm. Dual skirted control knobs, a slider control and a single-ply white pickgurd.
