A cool early Strat Plus in one of the rarest and most desirable colors! E4 serial number as many of these early models have. Many player love a Strat plus. Nearly top of the line in the 80s and 90s, these guitars are being discovered by a new generation of players for their quality and cool tones. This early model would make a great addition to any gear addicts arsenal. The body is alder for good sound and weight. The 25.5 inch scale maple neck features a 9.5 inch radius rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets. A trio of Lace Sensor pickups offer powerful tone with very little noise. A 2 point trem offers smooth whammy action while a roller nut and locking tuners keep it accurate. Early Wilkinson roller nut. Click HERE to see the neck stamp and HERE to see the neck pocket. Original swimming pool rout. Original pickups and electronics. This example like many early Strat Pluses doesn't have a Tremsetter. Amazingly rare and uncommon Fiesta Red finish. Read here to get some great info on these guitars and see why they are so special.
I'm a big Strat Plus fan as they always feel great and have nice tone. The big frets and flat radius neck offer easy playability. The Lace Sensor pickups are powerful, bright and have very little noise. They are very clear and are great with effects. Everything works as it should on this example. The neck is straight, action is low and the electronics work fine. A nice guitar. This is a fine 23 year old guitar showing playwear as you would expect. It shows light pick and clearcoat scratches. Some indents and one small edge ding. Still nice looking. Comes in original hardshell case.
This is one of the hardest colors to find. Coupled with the fact that this is an early E4 serial number model, it would make a nice addition to any collection. Strat Pluses have steadily increased in price over the years with me buying them for more than what I used to sell them for. Definitely a rare guitar and sure to have some collectability in coming years.
