Beautiful Fender Stratocaster (serial no. US16125380) that is really in EXCELLENT condition apart from a very small paint flake (less than 4mm, see pictures) on rear of top edge. There are also some very minor indentations on the top of the body that can only be seen in a certain light (see photo). Obviously, none of this effects the playing or sound of the guitar in any way.

It has an ash body, maple neck and a rosewood fretboard, Fender locking tuners, 4th Gen. Noiseless pickups with S1 switching and a No-Load Tone control.
