A 'slab'-type (thick) rosewood Fretboard with truss rod adjustment at the body end and no 'skunk' stripe on the back of the neck.  A honey-coloured finish on the maple areas of the neck (as opposed to pale, unstained wood). Three single coil pickups with staggered-height alnico (mid-greyish), unchamfered pole-pieces. A 3-ply white/black/white scratch plate - held to the body with 11 screws. A vintage tremolo/vibrato bridge held to the body with six crosshead, dome-top screws, and featuring Fender-branded saddles. A pre-1964 style 'spaghetti' Fender logo on the headstock. Generous body contouring with plenty of arm and chest relief, and relatively light weight. Individual routings in the body for each pickup - i.e. not a universal 'swimming pool' routing. Kluson-style vintage machine heads with nickel plating, oval pegs, and no branding. A blank or 'FENDER' branded neckplate, with both 'Made in Japan' and the serial number on the back of the neck just above its join with the body. A single nickel plated string guide on the headstock.
