With a lightly coated, nicely textured black refin job, this Strat® has an almost matte finish that gives it a unique look. From just before the infamous 3-bolt era, when Fender® used only three bolts to connect body and neck, this is a stable with nice action, and also has a unique look. With a number of changed parts, it’s a hot-rodded player’s guitar.
