E-Series Stratocaster

E-Series Stratocaster

Fender E-Series Stratocaster made in the mid-1980's.  The finish on this particular guitar shows the most wear of any in stock.  The guitar will have a complete and detailed set-up before going up for sale.

Notice the scratches under "Stratocaster".  It seems someone just couldn't stomach "Made in Japan" on their guitar.  During this era Fender was being sold by CBS to a private group of investors and for a brief period ceased production in the United States.

There's something special about Lake Placid Blue but you can see there are some dents and dings.  The body will get a good polishing but no attempt to eliminate the damage to the finish is planned.

Here's a little better shot of various cosmetic issues.  A very solid player instrument and no "Squier" logo.  These 80's Strats are harder to find then their Squier counterparts.
