Fender '62 Strat, rare 'jupiter blue' finish with matching headstock, crafted in Japan 2002-04. This finish is pretty sweet: it's dark and majestic but with a really noticeable metallic sheen; it's amazing under lights. The matching headstock is a nice touch, this is a non-catalog model so finding this look is pretty tricky. The Texas Specials sound great: they're fat, thick and scooped with heaps of attack and warmth, it's a really tasty tone for rock and blues especially. These models have the nice alder body to add warmth and depth to the tone, they're better balanced than the basic CIJ Strats. This is a smooth operator that'll happily slot into whatever role you need with heaps of spank and attitude!

Model: Fender Stratocaster, '62 Reissue (ST62-70TX)
Made: Japan, 2002-04 (serial Q095138)
Finish: jupiter blue, 3-ply white guard
Body: alder 
Neck: maple with rosewood board, dot inlays
Mods: none
Neck, middle and bridge pickup: Fender USA Texas Specials
Case: Fender branded gig bag

Cosmetic condition notes: mild finish wear. There's some normal play wear on the guard and minor discolouration on the chrome. There's a few minuscule dimples around the body, really nothing worth mentioning. Overall: excellent condition (7/10)

Playing condition notes: Neck is straight, action is low, intonation is good, truss rod works. All electronics tested and working properly. Frets have been a little wear, heaps of life left in them, 8/10. Smooth stuff!
