This example is represented as all original and weighs 8 lbs 5 oz. It has plenty of genuine player character, including dents, scratches, and cracks around the body contour/cut areas.

The E4 serial prefix does not mean the guitar was built in 1984. E4 decals continued to appear on early Strat Plus guitars, and Strat Plus production itself began in 1987; therefore, the 1988 neck date is the more useful dating evidence here.

Condition

Good to Very Good Vintage Condition

This guitar has been played and shows genuine cosmetic wear consistent with its age.

Condition Notes:
• Various dents and scratches throughout
• Genuine vintage playwear
Cracks around the body contour/cut areas – see photos
• According to the provided assessment, the cracks do not affect playability or structural integrity

⚠️ BODY CRACK DISCLOSURE: There are visible cracks around the body cut/contour areas. They are being fully disclosed and should be examined carefully in the photos. Because this is a significant condition point, buyers should make their own assessment from the detailed images.

Interestingly, body/neck-pocket finish cracking is documented on other early Graffiti Yellow Strat Plus examples, though the extent varies considerably from guitar to guitar. A cleaner all-original 1988 example was documented with a minor neck-pocket finish crack.
