Description

This is a beautifully clean 1965 Fender Stratocaster. This guitar is in excellent condition with a gorgeous three-tone sunburst finish. A great feeling neck and a excellent player, facilitated by a recent refret and a new nut. This thing's ready to go! Except for the aforementioned work this guitar is 100% original. The neck is a killer feeling affair with a medium sized carve that's super comfortable to play. The guitar features a '65 "Slightly fatter headstock" that Fender went to in that year. Does that headstock thickness amount to anything? We think it does. '65 Strats are usually excellent sounding guitars and this one does not disappoint. Great tone from all three original gray bobbin pickups on tap. The guitar comes in its original black Tolex hardshell case.
