2008 Fender FSR Classic Series '50s Stratocaster
Fiesta Red with Gold Hardware

Step straight back to the golden era of rock 'n' roll with this gorgeous 2008 Fender FSR (Fender Special Run) Classic Series '50s Stratocaster. Long before the Vintera range took over, the Mexican-built Classic Series was Fender's flagship vintage-reissue lineup. This rare, limited-edition FSR version pairs the iconic Fiesta Red finish with striking factory-fitted gold hardware, delivering the ultimate nod to the legendary Hank Marvin aesthetic.

Sporting a striking single-ply white pickguard, aged plastic parts, and a deeply tinted gloss maple neck, this guitar screams old-school coolness. It is in excellent condition throughout, showing only minor signs of use, and has just passed through our pro guitar workshop for a full inspection, fret clean, and a precision setup with premium Elixir 10-gauge strings for long-lasting brightness and silk-smooth playability.
