This is one of the Highly collectable C series Japan made Fender Stratocaster's !  These were only made in 1985 and 1986 . When you look up Strats  here on ebay you will find 25,000 or more at any one time. When you look up these Japan made with black Headstock you will find maybe 12......Maybe 20 at the most and not very many from the C series . This one has a Floyd Rose type tremolo (tremolo has no name on it,that's  why I say type.)Humbucker,single,single pick ups .this baby plays AWESOME .Low action Rosewood neck ,practically plays itself ! She has seen her share of the Rock wars and has her share of bumps and Bangs so if you want a new one buy a new one .But if you want a real 80's Strat and not a re-issue ,buy this one .....you will NOT be disappointed ! Includes a Used Fender GiG Bag!!!
 
DATING JAPANESE-MADE FENDER INSTRUMENTS

This Guitar was sold and was returned because he said the body is not original . I am not the original owner and I took this one in trade at my store.All I know is this guitar plays and sounds amazing . I am not fond of floyd rose trems or rosewood necks but THIS one is a keeper ! I took it back because he didn't love the guitar, He tried to get out of the deal before I shipped it. SO AGAIN I SAY -----DO NOT BUY THIS GUITAR IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PLAY IT AT GIGS ! THIS IS A WORKING MANS GUITAR !!!
