In a world of iconic guitars and legendary guitar builders there is one electric guitar that rules the roost. The Fender Stratocaster is certainly the instrument that the guitar playing world would come to place upon the pedestal of greatness. Nineteen Fifty-Four was the year everything changed forever in the world of popular music, how guitar would be played and received, and in particular what rock and roll and electric guitars were to become. The Fender Strat has been on more stages and graced more recordings than likely any other model or brand. This example of Stratocaster Power is exemplary in it's condition, appearance and certainly it's performance. Crafted in Japan in around 1997-2000 this Candy Apple Red barnstormer has everything you'll need to fuel your performance and take it to the next level. Fender started with a lightweight, two-piece poplar body and loaded it with three ST-Vintage USA pickups, wired traditionally with the exception of a five-way switch to make accessing the "in between" sounds a cinch. The neck is a beautiful straight grain, one piece maple affair with a slick, substantial oval profile, 21 vintage-style frets and classic four-bolt installation. An authentically tooled, vintage style bridge and saddles, classic tuning machines and period correct nut width keep the vintage mojo rolling along perfectly. The guitar has a perfect, classic Strat tone down with plenty of punch from the US pups, running the spectrum from smooth bell-like warmth, scooped funky quack, and percussive, incendiary, biting lead tones. This instrument is running on all cylinders with a classically balanced, perfectly contoured feel to both the neck and body. Warm and resonant, biting and articulate this axe has rock and roll in it's DNA and Chicago Blues in it's soul. Cosmetically the piece is as pretty as a show pony with not too much wear, blemishes include a few dings along the top edge. (not far from where your arm rests) If you are looking for a long-term, main squeeze that with relic along with you over the ages this Candy Apple Red-hot firecracker will set you right.

It has been deep cleaned and detailed. All guitars will arrive looking and playing great. The frets have been dressed/polished and the fingerboard was cleaned.
