Description

An iconic model from one of Fender's most celebrated years, this 1957 Stratocaster is an outstanding example in excellent condition, showing moderate wear throughout. The V-shaped neck has a slightly fuller profile than many '57 V-neck Strats, offering a fantastic feel. The two-piece body is expertly matched, with the seam so well concealed it's nearly undetectable. While the neck and bridge pickups have been professionally rewound and the volume pot replaced, the guitar remains otherwise original. Tonally, it embodies the quintessential late-'50s Stratocaster sound across all three pickups—a true benchmark of the era. Included with the guitar is the original tweed case, complete with the tremolo arm.
