2018 Fender USA American Professional Stratocaster Electric Guitar

Tone: Everything about this guitar is classic Strat. It sounds like a Strat. We win.


Feel: This has the "typical Fender neck" that I've come to expect from late-'80s through early '00s instruments. It's 1 11/16" at the nut, has a slim-medium C profile, and the usual 9 1/2" radius. It's quick and easy.


Interesting features: The Sienna Sunburst finish is a big bonus. All of the "modern Strat" features are also nice -- heavy-duty sealed tuners and the 2-point trem are good upgrades compared to "vintage Strat" features.


Repairs included: It's had a good setup done.

Condition notes: It's been handled lightly but there are a few small nicks/finish chip-offs around the edges of the instrument and some light pickwear/handling wear throughout. It's missing the trem rout cover on the back and does not come with its whammy arm. The frets are essentially new but have a teensy-tiny bit of playwear. It was not enought to consider level/dressing but I can do that if desired by the next owner.


It comes with: It has a gigbag (not pictured).
