Fender HM Strat Razz Berry 1988 w/OHSC

Vintage Fender HM Strat in Razz Berry finish made in 1988 with Original Hard Shell Case. This guitar features a solid basswood body, maple neck and maple fingerboard. Equipped with an upgraded DiMarzio Fast Track 1 humbucker in the neck position, its original Fender Hot Rod single coil in the middle position and an upgraded DiMarzio Super 3 in the bridge position. Controlled by 1 volume pot, 2 TBX tone pots, a 5-way blade switch and 2-way mini-toggle coil tap. The 25" scale length neck has black dot inlays and black side markers with 24 jumbo frets on a 17" radius with a slim C profile. The hardware is comprised of black Gotoh sealed die-cast tuning machines with cloche heads, a Kahler locking nut, a Kahler Spyder tremolo bridge and "F-Stamp" top hat knobs.

This guitar is in overall very good condition. There are some light surface marks throughout the body and on the headstock. There are a few small dings on the body front and sides. The fretboard shows some wear and there are light scratches throughout. The plating on the bridge/nut and neckplate show oxidation and wear. There is a small split on the back of the neck above the skunk stripe but is only cosmetic. The middle latch on the case is broken but still closes. (See Pics)

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 9-42 strings. Includes Original Hard Shell Case.
