Fender Stratocaster Sunburst 1973
This 1973 Fender Stratocaster delivers the unmistakable tone and aesthetic of the CBS era. Featuring an alder body with a Sunburst finish, its vintage appeal is highlighted by natural lacquer wear. The original maple neck with a Thin C profile provides a comfortable feel, while the 7.25” radius maple fretboard has been re-fretted with jumbo frets, which still have about 30% wear.
The electronics are original, although the black bobbin pickups are likely not. The original chrome bridge and hardware remain intact, and the guitar comes with a hard grey case.
