Up for sale is a 1979 Fender Stratocaster Hardtail in good overall condition. A great vintage late-’70s Strat with the added rarity and feel of the factory hardtail configuration.

The guitar shows honest cosmetic wear from age and use, including finish cracking on the body, giving it plenty of vintage character. It remains all original with the exception of a graphite nut and replacement saddles.

There is some fret wear on the first few frets, but overall this is a solid vintage Stratocaster with a great look and plenty of life left.

Highlights:

• 1979 Fender Stratocaster
• Factory Hardtail model
• Good overall condition
• Finish cracking/checking on the body
• All original except graphite nut and saddles

Hardtail vintage Stratocasters don’t come up nearly as often as their tremolo-equipped counterparts, making this a great opportunity for a player or collector looking for an original late-’70s Fender with plenty of character.

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.
