Fender Strat

assassinator7 Store

Genuine custom made Mexican strat with all the Mojo and classic vibe as A USA Stratocaster.    Sounds AWESOME...BETTER THAN MOST!!!
I built this guitar entirely of 1990 FENDER STRATOCASTER parts.  Made in Mexico, MIM.  Serial number MN00395x.  Absolutely no asian parts involved in this guitar. 
This 21 year old guitar has aged solid alder body with aged maple neck.
Features include:  chrome hardware, covered tuners, 21 fret maple neck, black dot markers, three ply pickguard, three official Fender USA ceramic single coil pickups, five way pickup switch, one volume control, two tone controls, standard tremolo.  There are light marks on the back of the neck, nothing deep or annoying.  The edges of the neck have typical wear, very nicely broken in.  The body is in great condition, with only a handful of dings.  The body I believe is one that actually was made in the USA then assembled in Mexico.  My understanding is that happened occasionally in the early years of Mexican production.  No belt buckle or Levi rivet marks on the back.  The frets and finger board have wear but has silky smooth playability !  The top of the the guitar is VERY NICE.  Light scratches on the pickguard.  The tone of this guitar is Awesome.  With the volume turned down slightly you maintain typical strat tones, but as you turn it up you get this beautiful raunchy dirty tone... more like a USA Stratocaster.  I really like this guitar, but as you can see from the last picture I should probably let some of these go.  
I have completely serviced the guitar... cleaned and polished the body and neck, cleaned the controls (no scratchy pots), set the intonation, installed new strings, lightly leveled and polished the frets, etc.  AWESOME CONDITION.  She is READY to PLAY and PLAY and PLAY!!! 
I have owned over 10 strat style guitars over the last 5 years.  The strats I am selling now are from my personal collection.  These are GREAT guitars at an incredible value.  They have received hours of setup and refurbishing time.  I really believe you will be happy with this guitar.  Look at the last picture and my other listings.  I have a couple of made in Mexico mexican mim strats, a SRV vibe Roadhouse strat, a FenderDELUXE Strat.
