Tech NotesWired with the middle pot being a volume blend.
This 1966 Fender Stratocaster has the well-earned character of a guitar that has seen decades of use, with heavy elbow wear and pronounced finish wear across the back. The Sunburst finish shows its age naturally, giving the body plenty of vintage character. It has been refretted and fitted with a replacement bone nut, while grey shielding paint and added jumper wires are present in the electronics cavity. The middle control has been rewired as a volume blend, offering an alternative way to shape the relationship between the pickups. Additional details include replacement strap buttons, a filled string tree screw hole in the headstock, and a previous owner's name and number inscribed on the neck plate.

Includes G&G hard shell case.
