Description: This is an extraordinarily resonant Strat® that has been plenty played, as its classic elbow wear on the top would indicate. And check out the extensive buckle wear on the back—this is a guitar that has seen many a darkened stage. With clay dots, all original hardware, and three great sparkly pickups—on the bright side of Strat® pickups—this one has a unique feel among our many pre-CBS Strats.
Its thin, shallow tapered neck is completely bare as well, and the original frets are low but still playable. Darkened to a nice honeyed color, with a gorgeous sunburst, this L-series Strat® is essential for any player to check out, as well as anyone looking for the kind of classic wear that can only come with time.
