"When we released the Stratocaster in 1954, we didn't set out to create a classic-but we did. The Stratocaster's sleek style, articulate sound and plethora of innovations redefined electric guitar and opened up a brave new world of musical possibilities. The American Original '50s Stratocaster maintains Fender's legendary original-era style and ground-breaking tone, while adding modern feel and pickup switching." -Fender

This guitar weighs 7LBs 12oz

This one is a showstopper! Need a strat that blends 50's class with modern flexibility? Look no further than this American Original '50s. This guitar is full of awesome specs. Nitrocellulose lacquer finish, soft V neck shape, custom shop pickups, bone nut, the list goes on. At the same time, the 5-way switching and chambered body add a modern flare to this swag machine. Cosmetically, this instrument is in great shape. There are little to no signs of play wear throuhgout, apart from two things. A minor finish scratch on the top of the headstock and a small crack in the back-guard from an overtightened screw at some point. These are not visible to the untrained eye. Comes with a nice tweed hard case.
