Made in the California Fullerton factory, this early '70s Hardtail Strat is straight out of the heyday, when folks like Eric Clapton were known for their love of these models. This lightweight, all original, no mod Strat is in exceptional condition for its age. No whammy bar. The seller has owned it for years, keeping it as a collectible and never gigging out with it. It comes with the original hardshell case, and the neck and frets are in excellent condition. Some light dings and scratches are visible, but the finish overall is bright.
