2018 Fender American Original 50’s Stratocaster-White Blonde
USED INFO:
This instrument is in fantastic condition overall and is a great feeling and playing example of a classic Strat. The nitro finish is in great shape aside from one small mark on the bottom horn. This one has a very big “soft v” neck profile and comes with the original hardshell case and all of the case candy!
WEIGHT: 7.8lbs
GENERAL INFO:
The Fender American Original '50s Stratocaster is a dead ringer for a classic 1950’s — save for a few modern refinements. The American Original '50s' lightweight alder body and Soft "V" maple neck are staples of this era, as are its vintage-tall frets, synchronized trem system, and nitro lacquer finish. Yet an enlarged 9.5" fingerboard radius (from 7.25") gives the American Original '50s Strat an advantage for lead work. Meanwhile, a trio of painstaking Pure Vintage '59 pickups with period-correct wire, bobbins, and pole pieces — wax potted for feedback control and wired for 5-way switching — puts this instrument in a class all its own.
