Description

Fender's "The Strat" was the first attempt at a high-end Strat. These instruments were special because they had a smaller pre-CBS (like) headstock, 4 Bolt Neck and regular truss rod instead of the bullet truss rod and large headstock that all other stratocasters had in this era.
Furthermore, they featured brass parts that were coated in 100 micron thick of gold. To put that into perspective, that is the same grade as fine watches.

Although this sports an unconventional wood used for Strats, this has the sound when you think "Strat"

A little on the heavy side but still a beast of an axe!

This guitar comes with the original hard case
