Fender Stratocaster

1969 FENDER STRATOCASTER SUNBURST COLOR, ROSEWOOD FINGERBOARD. NECK AND NECKPLATE NUMBERS SHOW IT TO BE 1969 PER FENDER CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE. SOMEONE TOLD ME IT MAY BE A 1970 PLATE NUMBER. POSSIBLE. I  REPORTED FENDER CUSTOMER SERVICE'S OPINION. PICKUPS MAY BE CODED DIFFERENTLY AS I DON'T KNOW THE CODING OF PICKUPS AND FENDER WAS NO HELP ON THIS. PU NUMBERS CAN BE SEEN IN MY PICTURES. THEY'RE NUMBERED THE SAME. THE GUITAR LOOKS, TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, TO BE ORIGINAL EXCEPT THAT 1) VOLUME POT HAS BEEN REPLACED, 2) TONE POT REPLACED W/SWITCH, 3) MICROSWITCH IS EXTRA, 4) PICKUP SWITCH MODIFIED. THE TREMELO COVER IS MISSING. PICKGUARD IS PEARLOID UNDERSIDE AS PHOTO SHOWS.

PLAYED OFTEN OVER YEARS AS SHOWN BY BODY, FRET WEAR, AND PARTS REPLACED FROM WEAR. PLAYS AND FUNCTIONS WELL. CASE MISSING LATCH SLIDER (BUT STILL LATCHES), AND SHOWS A LOT OF WEAR. I CANNOT VOUCH ABOUT MAKE OF HARD CASE AS IT CAME WITH GUITAR IN 1972 WHEN I ACQUIRED IT. GUITAR HAS GREAT TONE, DIFFERENT THAN A CONTEMPORARY STRAT. AS A FAN OF OLDER GUITARS, YOU PROBABLY KNOW THIS ALREADY. I SHIP UPS, USPS, OR FEDX INSURED AND WELL- PACKED. I'LL HAVE A STARTING PRICE TO REFLECT CASE AND POTS AND SWITCHES THAT VARY FROM A GUITAR THAT IS A MUSEUM PIECE. CHECK ALL PICS. PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS OR OTHERWISE FILL ME IN SO WE CAN BE CLEAR ON ALL POINTS AS ITEM IS SOLD AS IS WITH NO RETURN. I'LL TAKE MORE PICS IF REQUESTED
