1988 Fender Stratocaster in Sunburst. This thing plays great! It is set up with low action. The bridge is fixed, so you cannot use a whammy bar. It does have 5 springs in the back which is purely cosmetic. All electronics are in great working condition. Everything is original except the frets. She's a little on the heavy side, weighing 8.4 pounds.

My dad bought this guitar new in 1989. I replaced the frets about 10 years ago, and it could definitely use a fret dressing (see pics). It still plays great, you will only notice this on bending on one or two of the lowest frets.

It comes with a soft-shell case and the back plate.
