Fender '54 Reissue Stratocaster- MIJ 1990- 2 Color Sunburst

1990 Made in Japan '54 Reissue Stratocaster. These are excellent era correct Strats that capture the '54 look and feel at a fraction of the price of even the USA reissues. This one was played all over SoCal before the original owner passed 5 years ago. I purchased it from his nephew and besides being serviced its been kept as is. The guitar is completely original besides the strap buttons. The era correct appointments include the 2 tone sunburst, circular string tree and soft V neck shape. The body is also routed correctly with the SSS pickup routes not the universal pool route. The rear cover is missing - I do have one from another guitar I can include if you’d like, I just left it missing. You can see this also has the big trem block, that was stock with these. As said it's been played and features some real road wear. While everything is structurally sound the body has some dings and dents. There is 1 chip on the backside that's not damaged the wood, that's the only chip. Lots of dings and dents and also some scratches but presents well overall. The 2 tone sunburst looks great and I believe the body is a 2 piece with the center section right in the middle. The neck as said has a soft V shape and feels super comfortable.It has smaller frets that do show some wear but nothing that hinders playability or needs addressed right away. While they are small vintage wire they have plenty of meat to them and the action is comfortable and plays well up and down the neck without fretting out. The neck has a truss rod adjustment at the heel via a screw driver , like the old Fenders. The neck also has a pencil date of 2/22/90, the serial dates it to 1989 but it was obviously finished early 1990. The neck has a gloss that's broken in feeling. The bottom edge under the high E string has had the finish played through completely down to the raw wood and feels great, lots of finish is worn off on the edge of the neck and a little on the fretboard, as said it was a well played guitar. When this guitar was new it was replicating a 36 year old 1954 Strat at the time and now it is 34 years old itself. It's been fully serviced recently and is well set up with GHS 10's on it.

These MIJ reissues are vintage now and commanding good prices. I do not have a case for it but it will be well packed with bubble wrap and packing paper.
