Up for bids today is an excellent condition vintage 1979 Fender Strat in one of the rarest and most desirable colors - Blond! From the days of the "Mary Kay" Strats of the 50's the transparent white blonde has been the one to have. As a bonus, this one has possibly the best fade I have ever seen! It is positively Butterscotch! Looks like a blackguard 50's Tele! The beautiful grain from the highly figured ash body is visible though the finish and I tried to capture that in the photos. Hardtail configuration stays in tune and has better sustain than trem models. This guitar is 100% original with not one screw changed! When I first got it, I opened it up and the pickguard had never been off before! I have included pics from that day to show the insides as well as the extent of the Phenomenal fade this guitar has experienced since it was new. Even comes with the rare bridge cover intact and included. Close to near mint, except for minor finish chipping on the edges, all captured in the pics. 8 lbs. 7 oz. on a highly accurate digital scale. Included is the almost new condition original Fender case! 79's are getting close to $2K on GC in far less desirable colors. Let's start the bidding off at an insanely low $999 with NO RESERVE! Someone may get to steal this one! Shipping is a flat $85 to the Continental US only. Ask all questions before bidding please.
