Everyone loves a Pre-CBS Stratocaster, but when it's in a custom color? We're head over heels. This Lake Placid Blue Strat, with a neck date of November 1964, is a knockout. It's got killer tone and vintage wear that would be the envy of any Custom Shop luthier. With a recent set up by the Carter Vintage team, it plays great along its Brazilian Rosewood fretboard. This guitar remains largely original with only minor modifications and replacements including a rewound neck pickup, a refret, replaced nut, replaced high E tuner ferrule, and replaced high E saddle adjustment screw.

Includes modern hard shell case.

*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.
