Fender Stratocaster

Fender 2011 American Vintage'57 Stratocaster Reissue
Black, Maple Fretboard with Original Tweed Hard Shell Case  Mint Condition, Played Only a Few Times!
One of the most popular instruments in history, the Fender
Stratocaster guitar is the most imitated electric guitar ever. 1957 was
a landmark year for the instrument - it had evolved from its early
incarnations into an archetype - and it was the high point of the
maple-neck era. Features include an alder body (ash on White Blonde
model), ’57/’62 pickups, three-way switching (five-way switch kit
included), beveled pickup magnets, ashtray bridge cover and single-ply
pickguard.
