A very honest mid-’70s Strat that’s all about feel and vibe. This 1975 Fender Stratocaster is finished in its original White with a black pickguard and retains its original pickups and wiring. It plays exactly as you’d hope a well-used vintage Strat should — comfortable, resonant, and full of character.
Everything works as it should, with the pots operating smoothly and without crackle, though the physical stops have deteriorated over time (very typical for the era). There is a visible crack in the finish just below the pickguard, shown clearly in the photos. This appears to be in the paint only and is cosmetic in nature.
The frets show visible wear and some dents, but there’s plenty of life left in them and the guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with no buzzing. A great example for someone who wants a genuine vintage Strat that’s ready to be played, not kept in a case.

Overall good vintage condition. Frets show wear and dents consistent with age but play well with no buzzing and plenty of life remaining. Pots function correctly with no crackling, though the end stops have deteriorated. There is a visible crack in the paint just below the pickguard (see photos). General cosmetic wear throughout as expected for a 1975 instrument. Fully checked, plays and sounds exactly as it should.
