This very early re-fin Daphne Blue pre-CBS "L" series Stratocaster weighs just 7.70 lbs. Solid alder body, one-piece medium profile maple neck with a fat nut width of just under 1 11/16 inches. Beautiful swirly Brazilian rosewood fretboard with clay dot position markers. 'Spaghetti' logo headstock with neck dated "2 OCT 63B." Three single-coil pickups with balanced outputs of 6.82k, 7.12k, and 6.45k. Rare tortoiseshell over white/black/white plastic pickguard with eleven screws. Fender "Synchronized Tremolo" combined bridge/tailpiece. Extremely rare original Fender top-of-the-line brown leather hardshell molded form-fit case with orange plush lining (9.00). A great player and a spectacular looking guitar.
