Fender Stratocaster: Vintage 1978-1981

May 28th, 2009 • Music

I had the pleasure of re-stringing and adjusting the bridge on a beautiful vintage Fender Stratocaster this weekend!

The serial on it was S915137 – A quick search reveals the guitar is over 30 years old! Dated between 1978 and 1981. Very nice indeed. The owner had stripped the lacquer off which gave the instrument a whole new tone, whilst I’m not brave enough to do this to my own strat (I choose rather to snap the truss rod, but thats a whole different story, oops!), It’d be cool for anyone who wants a more open sound from their Strat.

Have a look at these pictures of it!
