Fender Stratocaster, USA, 1973/4

Fender Stratocaster

Made in the USA

1973/4

This old gal is 48/49 years young depending on which site you check on.

She shows playwear commensurate with her years, not a factory reliced or Black n Deckered.

Just genuine wear from years of love!

Three tone sunburst body faded to the front, slight touches of red around the wear, more burst showing to the rear.

Large headstock neck with a rosewood  fret board.

Three point neck plate.

There is an 'original' Floyd Rose vibrato and locking nut fitted.

This was installed in 1983 at a considerable cost. Receipts included in the sale.

Neck and middle pick-ups look original with the bridge being changed to a Seymour Duncan.

The action is set at 1.75m bass side and 1.50mm treble.

I find this to be a nice height but I understand my low may not be high enough for you, personal adjustments may be required.

The included case is not a '73 case but they have been together since the Eighty's with the 3 point neck plate marks clearly imprinted.

Priced to sell at £2995 this will only grow with time.

A playable investment.
