Beautiful Squier Strat with a matching headstock (white headstock)
Year of manufacture: 1997, made in Korea
Weight: 3.3 kg (approx. 7.3 lbs)
Frets: 21 vintage frets. Light signs of wear, but with plenty of material left should you ever want to level and dress them.
Nut width: 42 mm
Fretboard radius: 9.5 inches
Wood composition: Ash body, maple neck with a rosewood fretboard
String spacing: 35.3 mm at the 1st fret / 54.5 mm at the bridge
Condition & Wear: The guitar shows some signs of use, including the typical finish cracks near the neck pocket. There are also some minor dings/dents on the back of the neck - I bought it in this exact condition and have no idea what caused them.
Custom Electronics / Modifications: I have slightly modified the wiring layout:
1Meg Volume Pot + Treble Bleed Mod.
500k Master Tone Push-Pull Pot with a 22nF capacitor (connects Bridge+Middle or Middle+Neck in series for a fat, humbucker-like sound with higher output).
C-Switch (in the 2nd tone position) with 10 positions. It switches capacitors in parallel with the pickups - essentially acting as a low-pass filter, similar to a standard tone control but preserving the resonance frequency.
In my opinion, this is a highly versatile tool for any working musician. I used it in a cover band to cover the entire sonic spectrum—from funky clean to heavy overdrive—all with a single guitar.
Accessories & Extras: The pickguard is custom-made because standard Fender dimensions do not fit this model. The original red pickguard is included. The tremolo arm and the truss rod Allen key are also included.
Note: I am more than happy to modify the wiring to your preferences, restore the standard Strat circuit, or reinstall the original pickguard before shipping.
About me: As an ambitious musician myself, I know how stressful buying used instruments online can be. Therefore, I am happy to answer any questions you might have. The satisfaction of everyone involved is very important to me.
Shipping & Pickup: Shipping in the EU is available, local pickup and testing the instrument in 02625 Bautzen, Germany, is also possible.
