This is a reissue of the classic 1962 fender strat.  Only 1,997 were produced, this is # 450 as the neck plate shows beautifully. It has Lindy Fralin real 54 pickups in it. I have rewired it a few times to experiment with the different tones I could get out of the knobs and switch settings.  I say this cause I don't want any confusion about the fact that this was a guitar that was put to use, not a collector sitting in a display case. So please don't be upset that you may have to wire this to your liking or take it to a shop to set it up to what you dig. It sounds great right now but to my style ya know.    Has a few marks, I dropped the soldering iron on it once, other than that it's in great condition. No cracks, no chips. Neck is perfect, frets are great for a used guitar.   Will come with a standard hard case.   Here are the Specs: Model Name: 1997 Collector's Edition Stratocaster® Model Number: 010-1997-(800) Series: Limited Edition Series Body: Alder ('62 Strat Body) Neck: Maple ('62 Strat Neck) Nitro-cellulose finish on neck only Fingerboard: Rosewood with White Pearl Dot Inlays  (7.25" Radius/184 mm) No. of Frets: 21 (American Standard) Scale Length: 25.5" (648 mm) Width @ Nut: 1.650" (42 mm) Hardware: Gold Plated U.S. Vintage Hardware Special Engraved Gold Plated Neck Plate (Serialized 0450 of 1997)  Machine Heads: Gold U.S. Vintage  Bridge: Gold U.S. Vintage  Pickguard: 3-Ply Brown Shell Pickups: Lindy Fralin real 54's Pickup Switching: 5 Position Selector Switch (Vintage Wiring) Controls: Master Volume, Tone (Neck), Tone (Mid) Colors: (800) 3-Color Sunburst  (Lacquer) Unique Features: Special "1997" Inlay at 12th Fret Source: U.S. U.S. MSRP: $1,799.99 INTRODUCED: 1/1997 DISCONTINUED: 1/1998
