A lovely late ‘80s Strat Plus in classic Candy Apple Red, and a really nice example of a model that’s become increasingly sought after.
These Plus models have a feel all of their own — proper USA Fender build quality, modern touches for the time, and a really dependable, gig-ready feel. This one has all the clarity and snap you’d want from a great Strat, with plenty of smoothness on top.
It’s an honest, well-kept guitar that’s clearly been played and enjoyed without being abused, and it comes with its original case. A very cool bit of Fender history and a proper player’s Strat.

Good overall condition for the age.
There are light signs of use across the guitar, including surface wear and some small chips around the body edges. There is also a more noticeable scratch/mark on the front of the body, plus a few small marks on the back and a small ding to the rear of the neck. Nothing out of the ordinary for a 1989 guitar, and it still presents really well overall.
