Gorgeous 6 0′ s Vibe Stratocaster Fully Loaded Solid Wood Body. 3 Color Sun bu rst & Mint Green Pickguard. 2000 Starcaster by Fender Full Thickness Stratocaster. Upgraded USA Electronics (Professionally Installed). Excellent example of what you can do with Squier body. Simply add you favorite Fender neck and you have a 62 Reissue guitar for a fraction of the cost. The pickups are from a higher end Squier pickups with the side magnets vs. The bar across the top which allows for the staggered pole pieces (60’s voiced). The mint green pickguard shows up more prominent in person than in does on camera for some reason. You will not be disappointed with this one! Condition Report : This is a NICE guitar body overall with one paint chip on the side that has been touched up with enamel in the black part of the burst finish. You can barley notice it’s there unless you go looking for it as the damage stayed in the black color of the finish. One tiny ding on the front as well with a few scuffs around the other edges. Small hairline clearcoat crack forming on one of the neck pocket wings (common). On a scale of 1-10 I give this one a 7 but with the upgrades and overall appearance its a lot higher. Other than that you have an excellent full size platform, that is a genuine Fender part. Ready for your next custom build! 2000 Fender Starcaster Full Size Body (60’s Tri Color Sunburst). Body Thickness = 1 3/4 (USA & MIM Fender). Body Weight = 5lb 12oz (Fully Loaded As Shown). Original 4 Bolt Neck Plate. Vintage 6 Point Factory Bridge, Block Style Saddles, & Screws. Upgraded Stainless Steel Neck Screws. Sorry NO Backplate For This One. Fender Stratocaster Single Coil Pickups (MIM or Higher End Squier In My Opinion). Switchcraft USA Output Jack. Modern Wiring (Bridge/Middle Tone Control 1) (Neck Tone Control 2). 11 Hole 3-Ply Mint Green Pickguard (Little To Zero Wear Of Any Kind). USA 250K CTS Potentiometers (Vintage Dish-back).

Fender Stratocaster Classic player (sonic blue). Mexican made, but custom shop designed. This guitar is an absolute fine example of a well made Stratocaster. In my opinion it plays and sounds much better then the two American stratocasters I’ve played. The fretboard is very smooth and silky and the tone is sweet and vintage. If you know about these guitars, then you will have heard the hype. Posted with the original back plate, screws and whammy bar. Grab yourself a beautiful guitar at a bargain price.
