The Fender Stratocaster Hard Tail Black was produced in tandem with its much better known brother, but it was never as popular as the trem bridge version. This version appealed mostly to players who wanted the extra sustain, snap and ‘spank’ from a fixed bridge – as with a Telecaster. The Fender Stratocaster Hard Tail was finally discontinued in 2010 due to low sales.
Here we have a Rosewood fingerboard Fender Stratocaster Hard Tail dating to 1975, and built at the Fender plant in Fullerton, California.
It is in largely original condition though the volume pot has been changed – these are wear items and it’s not unusual for them to fail over time. This guitar has been used, so the frets are fairly low and a new owner might want to consider a refret – made much easier by the unfinished Rosewood fingerboard. As to the finish, there is some usual buckle rash on the rear, and a few small dings and dents around the guitar but it is otherwise in decent condition.
The original hard shell case is included.
