1954 FenderStratocaster – Sunburst (George Fullerton Signed)


As far as Strats are concerned, it doesn’t get much better! This early 1954 Fender Stratocaster features a beautifully ambered and aged Sunburst finish, showing lots of playwear and fine checking. Indicative of this wear (check out that fretboard!), this guitar is an amazing player. With a smooth, soft V profile your hand glides up and down the neck as you play. The bakelite hardware is equally as aged, worn down, and rounded along the edges, polishing off the vibe of this Strat. For lack of a better term, this guitar has the “mojo” everyone talks about. If its look and playability weren’t enough for you, this piece of Fender history was signed by George Fullerton in the trem cavity. While we can’t say for certain whether this piece was owned by him or just signed, this was an exciting discovery once we took off the trem cover and looked under the springs!
