I Purchased this guitar new in 2009 added a set of Fender noiseless pickups, and have kept it "as new" for my collection.
The neck is the best Rosewood neck that I have ever seen on a Mexican Strat. They say the 2008-2009 are the best years for these.. and it shows. Many of the parts were made in America and assembled in Mexico.
Comes with an aftermarket Tweed HSC. My price is firm and right.
