Done to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Strat, this 1979 limited edition model looks surprisingly modern with a sleek finish and updated feel. The Silver metallic finish has worn into a cool almost greenish hue thanks to the aging of the top coat. This one sounds great and not too heavy, all set up and ready to go.
This example has had a refret, refinished neck fretboard, replaced output jack and 5 saddle height screws replaced. Serial #258921, comes with a non original gig bag. Weighs 8.7lbs.
