These were produced for a short period of time in 2013. The corresponding Telecaster is more readily available, but these Stratocasters don’t come up very often.
This guitar is in fantastic shape with hardly any signs of wear to report. There are a couple spots that show white and looks like a scratch. But it’s just in the finish - it’s very smooth across that area. Photos available on request.
I found a minute amount of scratches on the top to the left of the pickguard. Very light and very superficial and very hard to see.
It does exhibit the obligatory pick scratches on the pick guard and backplate. On the headstock there are a couple of blemishes that look like they were maybe caused by a clip on tuner or something. Very difficult to see.
And just so you know it’s Pedigree is that of a genuine Fender, it has the two obligatory neck pocket finish cracks. Pics available upon request. They’re not bad, but they’re there.
This Strat has very smooth fret ends and the fingerboard is very clean. It plays great and sounds fantastic. Very little play wear on the frets themselves. No dimples or divots.
Outside of those things, it’s pretty pristine.
Come check it out and make it yours.
Wiggle stick is present, just not photographed.
