Fender American Original 50s Strat, lefty, blonde, 2017. The Am-O series replaced the AVRI guitars that were made for many decades. They're updated takes on the classic Fender offerings of days gone by, so this one is an ash Strat with a soft V neck, harking back to the 50s. These are discontinued now, so if you're a southpaw chasing one, now's your chance. The tone on offer is thick and defined with plenty of trad Strat-spank, it's got a pleasant balance of fatness and snap. The thin nitro finish wears quickly, so this has a few marks around the edges, but it's free from major wounds and looks very pretty indeed. You've got one shot, friend!
