1956 Fender Stratocaster, Excellent+

The Strat guys tell me that mid to late 56's and early 57's are the cream of the maple board Strats and I think I believe them (not being a Strat guy). Wonderful full V neck profile is the main event in this era. This is a no issue near museum grade 56. Still has the bakelite parts which show almost no wear. Alder body (started in 56), original frets and original everything else including the ashtray and trem arm and all 5 springs. This is two owner Strat and the second owner never played it. There is no body or neck wear and light fingerboard wear and some light pick marks above the guard. Tone is spanky and balanced between the pickups. Case is excellent plus tweed knucklebuster.
