1961 model Fender Stratocaster

Great 'player grade' example! Has been modified extensively throughout it's life, but still has great vintage vibe. See list below for full details.

Beautiful dark slab rosewood fretboard, refretted with vintage style frets. Plays well up and down the neck.

Fantastic vintage tone - lots of beautiful upper harmonics, great sustain and rich sound in all positions.

Previously owned and gigged by well-known Perth Blues player and guitar collector.
