This is a TRUE 50th Anniversary Stratocaster, not just a Strat made in 2004 that has 50th Anniversary noted on it. What's the difference??? Do your homework and find that a true 50th anniversary commemorative stratocaster must have a sunburst color, custom shop specially mad on the original machines pickups, a tweed case and more. This guitar has it all . Neber player out, sounds great and plays great. Stop by to play it and review all the documentation. No low ballers and no trades. Call for more info.
