Here a Vintage  1979 Fender Stratocaster  in Translucent Red. The Archetypal Fender  Stratocaster Guitar, solid as a rock and around since 1954, heavy as hell but a sound to die for.

Lovely light red coloured  finish. Lives in original Fender hard-case.

In 1979, Fender celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Stratocaster (introduced in 1954) with its first “anniversary” instrument, and the first Fender Guitar to be issued in a pre-determined and numbered, limited quantity. A small run of 500 or so instruments produced were finished in Pearl White. However, due to the instability and excessive checking of the finish, many were recalled and re-finished in Porsche Silver or Gold (though Fender refers to it as “25th Anniversary Stratocaster Silver”), the colours that were used in the rest of the early production runs. So here we have one of these second series in fair condition.
