In excellent condition  it wears its 2-tone sunburst finish well over its smooth Fullerton carve—light dings and scratches make for a subtle patina that tells its story while still maintaining its excellent condition. It has been professionally re-fretted with medium jumbo wire, boosting its playability to modern standards while keeping its vintage tone and feel, perfect for players who want that old-school vibe with modern amenities. This Stratocaster is petite at only 7.5 lbs, it lands squarely in the ideal weight range for Strats, making it a resonant and balanced choice for stage or studio. This first year AVRI reissue has become highly coveted and the values of these early reissues continue to climb. The neck is stamped J. Torres with a neck heel pencil date of 5-24-82. Additionally a rare pencil mark of 57 is written in the trem cavity. Pot codes date to 1982 as well 26th week. Includes hardshell tweed Fullerton original case, original whammy bar, ash tray bridge cover, original nut as well as 2 extra trem springs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFullerton DNA, Fender Gold\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrafted in the first year of Fender’s American Vintage Series, this Strat channels 1957 down to its soft V-neck, single-ply guard, and vintage-style tremolo. The Fullerton-era builds are prized for their hand-shaped necks and light, resonant alder bodies—this one’s no exception. The V001153 serial firmly places it among the earliest, most collectible reissues from this historic run and a true investment as well as one heck of a player especially being such a light weight piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eVintage Tone, Modern Feel\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the medium jumbo re-fret, bends are smoother, action is lower, and sustain comes alive with ease. It retains the stock pickups, preserving the glassy highs and scooped mids that make this model a favorite among Strat lovers. A perfect blend of playability and period-correct tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePickups That Sing\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with original Fullerton Fender staggered-pole black bottom pickups, this Strat delivers the unmistakable chime and punch of a golden-era Fender.
