Their guitars are becoming some of the most collectible guitars on the market today and increase in value and stature year in year out.Product DetailsSerial: #S894124Pickups & Wiring: Original Grey Bottom '78' dated and stamped w/ original pots.Body: Olympic White Neck: Original C-Profile Bolt-On Maple Neck & Veneer Rosewood Fingerboard w/ 40mm Nut WidthTremolo: Upgraded Locking Kahler USA Nut & Tremolo System Hardware & Tuners: Aged Gold HardwareWeight: 8.8 lbsCosmetic InspectionThis guitar has recently undergone a professional service & set up. As pictured, the guitar has some serious Mojo! The 78 strats came with a nice thin poly finish that wears & discolours like a pre-cbs nitro finish would. This is a beautiful naturally road-worn guitar with tons of character! On the back there is quite obvious discolouration from what, we think, is years of playing in smoky bars & clubs. It has the classic arm wear that you would expect on a guitar of this age...this natural wear is highly simulated by the Fender Custom Shop today. There is minimal fret wear & the neck plays great! We believe the neck was once re-lacquered and the new lacquer has worn through in places. There are also two small drill holes in the pickguard as pictured below.Please have a close look at the high resolution photographs below, as these form part of our description. SummaryOverall, this is a very rare and collectible guitar. Not only is this sure to increase in value year on year, but also it can be an enjoyed investment.Come along and have a play!
