This mid-'60s Stratocaster is a truly stunning example of the era's craftsmanship and design. The 3-tone sunburst finish is remarkably well-preserved, showing minimal wear and retaining its vibrant, classic appearance. It’s a testament to how well this instrument has been cared for over the years.  

The original pickups are exceptionally well-balanced, delivering that quintessential '60s Strat tone—rich, chimey, and full of character. Whether you're after shimmering clean tones or punchy, dynamic overdrive, this Stratocaster handles it all with ease.  

Entirely original and in fantastic condition, this guitar is a joy to play, with a comfortable neck profile and smooth action that make it a standout in both tone and playability. It’s a perfect choice for players and collectors alike who appreciate vintage Fender instruments at their best. It comes complete with the original hardshell case.
