1959 Fender Stratocaster Sunburst Rosewood w/OHSC

This Fender Stratocaster was made in the USA in 1959. It shows considerable play wear but no structural damage. Ok - when we got the guitar it had an original 1957 strat neck and 1957 ser# but the body is 11/1959 and the parts are 1959. We happened to have a 1959 Strat neck in our spare parts so we put them together. Interestingly that Strat neck came to us years ago on a 50's refinished body that had a 59 neckplate which we kept with the neck all these years and is the one on the guitar now. The pickguard is an original 11 hole single ply guard which Fender only did briefly in 1959 - but there is one added screw where the guard must have warped. All parts are original 1959 except the switch and 2 pots. Also, the neck was refretted. Original finish. The guitar weighs 7 pounds 7 ounces. It has been pro-setup in our store and plays great. It comes with an original brown vintage strat case that is very rough but functional.
