Up for sale is a vintage original 1979 Fender Stratocaster body, finished in its classic Sunburst and bearing the S9 serial (S998791) – a standout from the tail end of the CBS era. This body showcases all the vintage mojo you’d expect, with authentic wear, deep patina, and honest playwear that make it a true relic of the late '70s Fender lineage.
Crafted in Fullerton, USA, this Strat body retains its original finish, three-bolt neck pocket with micro-tilt system, and classic routing. It’s structurally solid, with no cracks or repairs, just natural relic'ing and character from nearly 50 years of life. A perfect foundation for a CBS-era correct build, or a cool vintage custom project.
