Description
What makes this guitar special? With the natural aging this Strat has endured, it has taken on a lot of vintage characteristics like a deepened finish color, neck tint, and tenured hardware, giving it a fantastic throwback vibe for a relatively new guitar. The neck is easy and comfortable and plays great from the nut to the cutaway. The pickups sound great and have a bit of vintage charm with a little modern dynamic. Overall, this is a solid Strat that harkens back to the Golden Age with rich sound, style and grace.
Condition: Overall, this ’57 Vintage Reissue is in excellent condition. There are a few small dings in the body and fingerboard as well as some light surface scratches, but overall, this guitar is in great shape. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should. The frets show mild wear but still play fine and have quite a bit of life left in them.
