Description from Fender: Here’s a great, lightweight example of the great, “E-series” Fender Stratocaster. These are sought out by players and collectors alike for their accurate appointments (a neck heel date written in pencil just like the 1950’s Fenders..how cool is that?) and excellent playability and sound. These guitar give Custom Shop Fenders that cost four times as much or more a serious run for their money and this particular Black example from ’88 deserves a spot in your stable of great guitars!
