Fender / Stratocaster / 1979 / Olympic White / Guitar
|
The Olympic White finish has faded to that wonderful cream colour that we so often associate with it. There are the expected knicks and bumps but nothing too substantial.
The neck thankfully has been left alone. The finish has worn comfortably on the back. The fretboard is in good shape. Its been refretted and there is plenty of life left in these. The tuners are Schallers.
The plastics as you'd expect have faded a little but there is not too much wear.
Electrically there have been a few changes. The pickups are a mix of period correct examples and the loom is from 1993 from the date codes on the pots.
The guitar comes with a Fender hardshell case from the period which is probably the original one.
Many classic Strat tones live in these late 70's guitars. Plenty of spanky brightness with a pleasing warmer tone from the neck pickup.
A great looking guitar with tone to match. Your foothold on the ladder or the perfect live foil.
