The pencil date on the neck heel is clearly marked \"3-1-1983\", making this Squier one of the earliest examples. This guitar plays and sounds great! The guitar is comprised of an alder body, \"C\" shape maple neck, and nice dark rosewood fretboard. This Strat sports Fender USA Vintage cloth wire pickups, delivering all the classic Strat chime. The Fiesta Red finish looks awesome, and this Strat is ready for many more years of enjoyment! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar does show some cosmetic wear from over the years that includes various surface scratches, scuffs, dents, and finish cracks throughout the body with additional scratches along the back of the neck and headstock. There's also quite a bit of finish wear throughout the body, particularly underneath the guard, and a white splotch located on the lower side of the body. The white splotch may be indicative of a hole that was later filled. There is evidence of prior routes under the pickguard that were later filled. Parts of the body were at some point painted over, though that has since been removed to reveal its original Fiesta Red finish. The hardware also shows light tarnishing from over time. This guitar was received largely in its current state, so we are doing our best good-faith effort to describe what evidence we see of prior work, this guitar has definitely lived an interesting life! The frets exhibit only normal play wear and still have plenty of life The electronics work as they should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pickguard, tremolo arm, and plastics have all been replaced. The pickups are older USA vintage cloth wire Fender pickups used for higher tier Fender Japan guitars, they are not original here. This guitar otherwise appears to be original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePickup Readings:\u003cbr\u003eNeck: 5.9k ohms\u003cbr\u003eMiddle: 6.1k ohms\u003cbr\u003eBridge: 6.1k ohms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar comes freshly set up with D'addario EXL110 (10-46) strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes the pictured Squier gig bag. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMake: Squier\u003cbr\u003eModel: SST JV Stratocaster\u003cbr\u003eYear: 1983\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Material: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Radius: 7.25\"\u003cbr\u003eScale length: 25.5\"\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 7.74 pounds\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1.65\"\u003cbr\u003eNeck Width at 12th fret: 2.01\"\u003cbr\u003eNeck Thickness at 1st fret: 0.82\"\u003cbr\u003eNeck Thickness at 12th fret: 0.91\"\u003cbr\u003eCase\/bag: Includes the pictured gig bag\u003cbr\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have shipped hundreds of instruments and other music related items and can assure you that your new gear will be packed professionally with the utmost care, using high quality materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease see pictures for exact condition and details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have any questions please let us know.
