'62
Reissue Fender USA Stratocaster Body
Up for sale
is this genuine, Fender USA Strat AVRI body, pulled from a
reissue of the classic 1962 Stratocaster. It was made in Corona, CA
in 1998.
Background:
The Fender USA '62 RI Strats feature top-of the-line
quality, and are a reproduction of the 1962 Stratocaster.
Don't confuse this body with the many other non-USA bodies
on eBay and elsewhere - some sellers go out of their way to avoid telling
you they are made in Mexico or Japan or god knows where.
This is a genuine Fender USA product.
Quick Specs:
"Comfort Contour" shape alder wood body, finished in a classic
black Nitrocellulose Lacquer. This body accepts the vintage
(6-screw) Fender USA tremolo bridge that uses 2 + 7/32" string
spacing, and takes any single-coil Strat pickups. Its neck
pocket has the standard US Strat width: 56 mm (a little over 2
and 1/8"). Its actual bare weight is 4 lbs. and 5 oz.
Condition:
Very good to excellent. Nitro finishes shows their wear more
than poly finishes - it's the nature of the beast. There are
many light surface scratches on the body, most couldn't be
captured with a photograph. Black hides this kind of wear very
well. On the upper horn, there are two small marks (pictured).
On the back, the paint has flaked away around the neck plate
area - a common issue with nitro finishes, but easily patched.
The good news: there no dents or dings to speak of on the body.
The Strat's alder wood is lightweight and the contour feels
just right against your body.

business address I can ship to. I may ship via Priority Mail or
UPS Ground. If you have a PO Box for an address, or are not in
the continental USA, email me to confirm a shipping method and
price before buying - if you are not in the "Lower 48" shipping

feel free to email me.
