1963 FenderStratocaster – Black
How beautiful is this 1963 Fender Stratocaster in its original Black finish?! Factory Black is one of Fender’s rarer Custom Colors; this particular guitar is a beautiful Pre-CBS example, with a celluloid green pickguard, clay dot inlays, and a bright rosewood fretboard on a maple neck. This rare finish is in great condition, with just some finish checking and patina throughout. The neck feels incredible in hand, and the sound from these three well-balanced pickups is just otherworldly.
Overall Condition: 9, weather checking throughout, with some fragile areas of finish in the horns and at the back of the neck, light patina
