Fender / Stratocaster Slab / 1961 / Sunburst / Guitar
|
If it’s played, it’s for a reason. This 1961 Fender Stratocaster Sunburst with a stunning slab board is the living proof. It’s 100% original except for a new nut and a refret, ready to rock another 60 years!
This is a lightweight Strat (3300 grams!), extremely resonant and HUGE sounding pickups. You can see in the photos it has been through a few battles, the mint pickguard has shrunk a bit, but it’s all functional and plays beautifully.
Wonderfully defined 3-tone sunburst, with the typical color tones of the era.
Super early 4th week of ’61 pots and pencil-dated “2-61” neck stamp.
Includes non-original HSC.
Slab Strats are one of the most sought-after guitars in the world, so don’t let this one get away!

Guitar Giraffe, Spain 
In the last few years, online sale for musical instruments has experienced an amazing growth, but has passed right through the pre-owned market (that is, in Spain), limiting it to specialised forums and private owners. This is why Guitar Giraffe was born, the first physical and online second hand guitar and amp store (we like to call it "pre-owned", since we see a big difference between both terms), with a clear commitment of giving new options to guitarists locally and worldwide. Pre-owned guitar stores, so common in UK and USA, were practically nonexistent in Spain. We’ve wanted to fill that empty space by becoming the first physical and online store in our country focused on pre-owned guitars and amps.
