Fender / Stratocaster / 1973 / Natural / Guitar For Sale
Get out the platform shoes and the velour flares, this early 1973 Fender Stratocaster with staggered pole pickups, still seems to think its the California Jam…
A natural finish is the way to go over an Ash body. There are the expected knicks and bumps but nothing too substantial.
The neck thankfully has been left alone. There is no real wear to be seen. The fretboard is in good shape. The guitar still has its correct tuners and the fret have plenty of life left in them.
The plastics are in great condition.
Electrically everything is correct. The grey bottom pickups don’t seem to have been touched Pots date to week 9 of 1973.
The guitar comes with its correct Fender hardshell case.
Many classic Strat tones live in these 70's guitars. Plenty of spanky brightness with a pleasing warmer tone from the neck pickup.
A great looking guitar with tone to match. Your foothold on the ladder or the perfect live foil.
