Early 1990s custom body and neck by all parts made in the USA. The headstock and body were LOCAL custom shop painted and finished in fiesta red so its NOT A FENDER CUSTOM SHOP. The guitar was made to match Bill Carson's original Stratocaster, some of the hardware has since been changed to: ~ a KGC brass tremolo plate w/ steel screws~ a KGC brass block~ a KGC brass claw ~ RAW vintage tremolo springs~ Fender SRV gold Saddles~ PG was replaced with Fender AVRI 62 57 PG with custom 60 PU's, PIO Cap, w/ Treble Bleed, all made in the USA.The remaining gold hardware (tuning pegs, jack plate, neck plate, and screws) is/are original to the guitar and there is fading some of the gold finish. Included are two tremolo arms; a long gold arm (an original to the guitar), and a newer chrome Fender AVRI arm.Guitar weighs 7 lbs. 9 oz.Neck specs:~ neck radius is 7.25"~ fret width is 0.082" measured at the crown~ fret height is 0.046"~ nut width is 1.750"~ Clapton V or 57-59 fender V neck shape 0.84" at 1st fret, 1" at 12th fretThe body is near perfect, it was kept in a studio for years until the pick guard was removed, then it was used for small gigs and jams. The neck has little to no wear on the frets (check photos). Strings were changed every two weeks and the neck has plenty of life left and is ready to be played. Guitar comes without a case but shipping is FREE and I'm open to reasonable offers.Link to the guitar being played below,https://youtu.be/i6WbgvjOKx8THANKS FOR LOOKING
