Up for sale is a killer 1979 Fender Stratocaster in very good condition with the honest play wear you want to see on a late-'70s Fender.

The standout feature on this one is the absolutely monster flame maple neck. The figuring is exceptional and gives this Strat a ton of character.

The guitar shows typical wear for its age, including some finish flaking on the body. Please see the photos for a closer look at the cosmetic condition.

It has received a professional refret, and the current frets show no wear, so it is ready to be played. The guitar is all original except for the nut and three tuner buttons.

Condition, Shipping, & Setup Details:

I specialize in selling pre-owned guitars, which typically show signs of regular use. My commitment to quality is unwavering, and I ensure that any guitar I offer for sale is free from problems, unless explicitly mentioned. With a history of selling guitars dating back to the 1980s, I pride myself on selecting only the finest instruments.


It's important to understand that our shipping fees encompass more than just the cost of the box. I guarantee professional packaging using UPS-approved materials to safeguard your purchase. This typically includes new, heavy-duty boxes rated at 275lbs, 3-inch wide brown fiberglass reinforced tape, ensuring the guitar is well-protected. Additionally, every guitar shipped is fully insured for its sale price.


The guitars are set up according to my personal preferences (Medium Height), and I strictly avoid guitars with neck issues. However, guitar setup is highly subjective, and it is advisable to have it adjusted by a trusted local technician who understands your specific playstyle and preferences.
