1961 Fender Stratocaster Slab

SOLD


If it’s played, it’s for a reason. This 1961 Fender Stratocaster Sunburst with a stunning slab board is the living proof. It’s 100% original except for a new nut and a refret, ready to rock another 60 years!

This is a lightweight Strat (3300 grams!), extremely resonant and HUGE sounding pickups. You can see in the photos it has been through a few battles, the mint pickguard has shrunk a bit, but it’s all functional and plays beautifully.

Wonderfully defined 3-tone sunburst, with the typical color tones of the era.

Super early 4th week of ’61 pots and pencil-dated “2-61” neck stamp.

Includes non-original HSC.

Slab Strats are one of the most sought-after guitars in the world, so don’t let this one get away!
