1975 Fender Stratocaster Vintage Guitar Black w/ Case
Up for sale, a 1975 Fender Stratocaster in excellent cognition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. A great medium weight vintage Stratocaster with a clear acoustic voice, this Fender is 100% original save for a fresh refret with medium fretwire and a couple newer knobs.
The trio of flat-pole gray bobbin single coil pickups excel at delivering a sparkling, snappy range of tonalities: the bridge pickup offers bite and upper midrange presence, the middle pickup has a certain honk and percussive chime, and the neck single coil has a smooth, detailed tone that's ideal for solos and lead work. This Stratocaster weighs 7lbs 15oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Black finish is 100% original with no touch-up or overspray, exhibiting forearm wear at the bass-side lower bout edge, buckle rash central to the back, some small chips along the body perimeter, and a few additional minor dings and finish scratches. The gloss on the neck profile is smooth and clean with just a few shallow marks. There is also a cigarette burn on the headstock edge.
A vintage black tolex hardshell case is included.
