This guitar is like new! Plastic and decals just removed this year leaving unfaded areas as shown.

Whammy bar is in the new hardshell case.

From Fender’s highly regarded late-2000s American Standard lineup, this was one of the more versatile and player-friendly Strats Fender produced during this era. These models introduced several meaningful upgrades over earlier American Standards, including the improved 2-point tremolo, rolled fingerboard edges, satin-finished neck, staggered tuners, and the powerful HSS pickup configuration.

This one is in super excellent condition and clearly not played.

Specs:

Body: Alder
Finish: Gloss Urethane, 3-Color Sunburst
Neck: Maple, Modern “C” shape
Fingerboard: Maple, 9.5" radius
Frets: 22 Medium Jumbo, Black Dot inlays
Scale length: 25.5"
Nut: Synthetic Bone, 1.685" (42.8 mm)
Pickups: Fender Diamondback™ Humbucker (bridge), Tex-Mex™ Single-Coils (middle/neck)
Controls: Master Volume, Tone 1 (Neck/Middle), Tone 2 (Bridge)
Switching: 5-way blade
Bridge: 2-Point Synchronized Tremolo with Bent Steel Saddles
Tuners/Hardware: Deluxe staggered cast/sealed tuners, Chrome
Neck Finish: Satin urethane back, gloss urethane front
Pickguard: 3-ply Parchment

The HSS setup makes this one especially flexible. You get classic Strat sparkle and clarity from the Tex-Mex single coils, but the Diamondback humbucker adds extra output and warmth when you want thicker rock tones. Combined with the comfortable neck carve and rolled fretboard edges, these late-2000s American Standards are still some of the best everyday-player Strats Fender has made.

Excellent condition examples from this era are getting harder to find, especially ones this clean!
