Permalink SOLD! Fender Stratocaster ‘62 RI (MIJ 1984/85)

New Topic
Page 1 of 1

Up for sale is a 1984/85 Fender '62 vintage reissue Stratocaster upgraded with a full USA wiring harness and Fender Custom Shop Fat 50s pickups. I picked it up at Mike and Mike’s Guitar Bar in Seattle last October. It’s a nice player’s grade example of an early Fender Japan reissue model with an "A" prefix serial number and a host of vintage-spec touches including a slab rosewood fretboard, pencil dated neck heel, correct early '60s neck shape, and alder body.

The electronics all work as they should and the entire harness is brand new. The Fender Custom Shop Fat 50s pickups are wired to 250K CTS pots, a three-way switch has been installed, along with a Sprague Orange Drop tone capacitor. I will include a Switchcraft five-way switch with the purchase. The vintage-style vibrato bridge and saddles show light surface patina. The block and arm have been replaced with a Callaham. The guitar shows an assortment of nicks and scuffs on the body as a whole, primarily on the back and lower bout edge. The "Made in Japan" text has been sanded off neck heel just north of the "A" serial four-bolt neck plate, yet this wear is not down to the bare wood and still has a satin feel.

Here is the original reverb ad for more details:Reverb ad

Thanks Jeff! After seeing Jonpaul’s P-bass in the same color combo, I got the itch!! I might just swap the p/u’s out and keep it if it doesn’t go soon.
