This 1998 Fender Standard Series Stratocaster is in excellent cosmetic condition showing some slight play wear throughout. There is one small ding on the bass side horn on the back of the body by the strap button (see photo). Otherwise, this Stratocaster is in terrific shape. The neck profile on this instrument is that of a chunkier C shape with very nice shoulders and feels great in hand. The frets are in good shape and have tons of life left in them and this guitar plays tremendous up and down the fingerboard. The original pickups in this guitar sound fantastic in every position and have a great squawk in the two and four positions. They are very clear and balanced and excel with a clean or dirty amp. These Standard Series Stratocasters are no longer being produced by Fender and have always been regarded as workhorse instruments of high quality. This 23 year old Stratocaster is no exception and will provide years of service to its next owner. A gem of a guitar shipped out safely and promptly from our little shop here in Clarksville, Tennessee, to your front door.
