Description

A great player grade vintage strat! It has a nice thin 2-Tone sunburst refin on the body with a vintage tint refin on the neck as well. It has a fresh refret and plays great with a classic strat sound; the neck pickup is a gray bobbin replacement from the '70s and the bridge and middle are original apart from a re-wind in the same direction. This gives the guitar a '50s style tone in the in-between positions to match the '50s style sunburst. The master volume and middle tone pots are replacements but the neck tone pot is original with the original capacitor! Here's a chance to have a killer vintage strat ready to hit stage and studio!

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
