About This Listing

AWESOME STRAT!!! Alder body, D shaped Maple neck with a 12" radius fingerboard and the original medium frets, 25.5" scale length, 1 11/16th" nut width, factory Fender single coil Strat pickups, 5-way switching with the master volume and tone controls, original Freeflyte tremolo with bar and cast/sealed tuners, 8.2 pounds. OHSC with original booklet and manufacture information.

The guitar is in fantastic shape and the pickups sounds incredible. They're very articulate and punchy and you really hear the difference between all 5 positions.

There is a small paint chip near the rear strap post (pictured), some play wear on the 1st-3rd frets (pictured), but otherwise the guitar is very clean and has no other significant dings, dents, or blemishes.

I am not in love with the fingerboard radius. It is flatter than I am used to with 7.5" being my preferred. Otherwise it is one of the best sounding Strats I've ever heard.

Watch the Norman Rare Guitars video linked below for a cool history lesson on these Stats and hear how it sounds.
