Vintage USA 1981 79 Fender Stratocaster hardtail w/Case
 1981 Fender Hardtail Stratocaster with Original Hardshell Case and owners manual
This guitar is in great condition for it's age. Plays and sounds amazing exactly as it should.
The guitar is all original.
The body and pickguard have light scratches on the front from regular play wear. On the back of the body there are scratches, light buckle rash and a few small chips in the finish. Some of the finish has worn off in the usual spots. This guitar has been played and has fretwear but... the frets are far from being worn out and there is plenty of life left in them.
Like gold, collectible vintage guitars are a great investment and a hedge against inflation. As long as the guitar is well cared for the value will only go up.
The last of the S9 serial numbered strats marks the end of the 70's era.  The 81 on the pickups and the neck heal indicate this guitar was most likely manufactured in 1981
The Fender USA case is near mint beautiful condition for it's age and the original key is included.
I also have and will include the original sales receipt dated 02/09/1982
