Pristine is this all-original example of a 1963 Fender Stratocaster serial number 99198 complete with its original blonde Tolex case with gold interior. I’ve known of this instrument for years and have always liked it as an old friend of mine bought it in 1985 for $950 (“as is”) and I’ve been trying to buy it ever since. Super nice unmolested all original example, reflects normal to light usage culminating in small scratches and dings, nothing major whatsoever. Large neck with original frets, almost no fret wear or back of neck lacquer wear. Nice lightweight feels fantastic sounds wonderful, looks great! Comes with original white Tolex hard shell case. All instruments are examined, cleaned and set up before selling. This thoroughly vetted instrument is 100% original including the finish, all parts and hardware. No modifications or repairs, no cracks or breaks. Fast and free same day safe shipping, USPS Priority fully insured by Heritage Insurance. Thanks, VGA

We ship USPS Priority and Fed Ex Ground next business day, all instruments are carefully packed utilizing new shipping materials, all instruments are insured by Heritage Insurance. All parcels are flat rate shipped and are the same price for all buyers in the domestic USA, international shipping is also flat rate for anywhere in the world. The price is based on the cost of new shipping materials, boxes, bubble wrap, tape and labor and has nothing to do with where you are or your ability to pick it up in person. It is not in our business model to offer in person demonstrations of instruments or in person pickup, both of these things take an employee and extra time. If you have a limit as to what you want to spend on shipping please factor this into you instrument offer as we accept reasonable offers on most items. If an item doesn’t allow a lower offer it’s because it’s already been discounted and already at its lowest price. We recommend that you don’t chose an instrument based on shipping cost alone as there are more important issues all of which we have well covered. I might point out that all of our guitars come with professional detailing and set up, this has real value and keeps one from getting inferior work from an unqualified retail establishment. Thanks for your understanding. John Russell Nelson owner VGA Vintage Gear America
