Excellent reissue with this 1965 strat. This vintage sonic blue color is very striking, the nitro gloss body and neck are very well applied. The body is very close to the original specs according to Fender and it shows compared to other strats of mine. The grey bottom pure vintage 65 pickups are a real treat, period wiring, Fender transition logo, rosewood "round lam" fingerboard. In short, if you are passionate about this era so significant in music, this is really the strat you need.
