Description

This 1965 Fender Stratocaster is an outstanding example of a well-preserved vintage instrument, featuring its original Sunburst finish with a rich, classic patina. The original pickups produce exceptional tone—crisp and articulate with a sweet midrange scoop, offering both clarity and punch that's equally suited for soulful blues or searing rock leads. The neck feels effortless under the fingers, with a smooth, responsive playing experience across the board. Whether you're a serious collector or a player chasing vintage tone and feel, this Stratocaster won't disappoint. Comes complete with the original hardshell case, hang tags, and case candy.

*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.
