Regrettably I’m selling my ‘79 Stratocaster that I bought 20+yrs ago.
In the time I’ve had it there have been many mods.
- I (idiotically) sold the hard case it came with originally so I’ve tried to replicate what it had in the form of this modern G&G case.
- The neck has been refinished in Nitro (originally poly) and it feels / looks much nicer alongside having the skunk stripe on the back secured as it was coming out.
- Refretted with massive Dunlop 6000 gauge fretwire.
- Fully loaded Eternal Guitars pickguard with S90 (P90 in strat shells) pickups in the neck / bridge with a standard one in the middle.
- The saddles have been replaced as the originals were worn.
- Original machineheads but the high e is a little bent (I have Schaller branded ones that can be supplied too).
I’ve listed as ‘79/80 as while the serial places it in ‘79 I recall the original pots having 1980 dates on them.
