Freshly set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech, this fabulous 1962 Strat is dialed in and ready to rock and roll. In Very Good vintage condition with expected wear and tear, plus a refin and applied decals. Has pickguard shrinkage and cracking. The decals cover most of the guitar, and to our taste anyway, look very cool. We don't know the back story on this guitar, but it was obviously owned by someone with an artistic nature and an offbeat sense of humor. You could spend hours examing these decals and still find something new every time. Originally Sunburst, it has been refinned in Black and decals added afterward.
If you buy this guitar you could strip it down and refinish it or keep the decals and lean into the artsy panoply of decoration. We hope it's the latter, but hey, you can do whatever you want when it's your guitar. Either way you'll have an incredible vintage Strat that plays and sounds just as it should. This guitar rocks!
