It features a thin nitrocellulose lacquer-finished body, larger, \"C\"-shaped satin-finished neck with modern 9.5\" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets, reverse wound\/reverse polarity middle pickup, five-way switch and tone pot wired to the bridge pickup.  This gives you all of the vibe of a vintage guitar but with modern playability and a different wiring arrangement than normally found on a Strat.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar came to us in excellent condition - other than a few small nicks in the finish on the body, there are no issues and it seems to have not been played a ton.  There's a ton of life left in the frets.  Everything on the guitar is original, except the jack (it was a bit noisy so we replaced it).  Also, about the case:  this model originally came with a 60's style brown case, but this one has a tweed case (still made by G\u0026amp;G and of the same quality).  It has been setup to play perfectly by our shop - the frets were dressed, the taken care of, and the guitar feels great.  It sounds even better!  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWe don't think this one will last long.  Come to Truetone Music to experience it today, or order right here before it's gone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBODY:  Alder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBODY FINISH: Thin Skin Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNECK MATERIAL:  Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNECK FINISH:  Satin Nitrocellulose Lacquer Back, Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNECK SHAPE:  Thick \"C\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFINGERBOARD RADIUS:  9.5\" (241 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDEPTH AT 1ST FRET:  .820\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDEPTH AT 12TH FRET: .920\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFINGERBOARD MATERIAL:  Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePOSITION INLAYS:  White Dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNUMBER OF FRETS: 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFRET SIZE: Medium Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSCALE LENGTH: 25.5\" (64.77 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRING NUT:  Synthetic Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNUT WIDTH:  1.650\" (42 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePICKGUARD:  3-Ply Mint Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNECK PLATE:  4-Bolt Serialized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBRIDGE PICKUP:  American Vintage Single-Coil Strat®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDDLE PICKUP: American Vintage RWRP Single-Coil Strat®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNECK PICKUP: American Vintage Single-Coil Strat®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCONTROLS: Master Volume, Tone 1.
