FENDER AERODYNE Stratocaster Blue Flame CIJ Japan Strat Matched Headstock 62842
Description
This is a 2006-08 Fender Aerodyne Stratocaster in a beautiful flame maple top, Crafted in Japan (S + 6 digit serial number). These guitars feel pretty amazing in the hands, thin body and light weight (7 pounds, 12 ounces). C-shaped neck has extremely dark rosewood fingerboard, 7.25" radius, and 25.5" scale. The flame top version of these are much more rare to find anymore, and these definitely are better than the recent crop of re-issues Fender put out.
The amber FMT top is a standout and some neat touches like creme binding on the body, contoured neck heel, and a matched headstock add to its appeal. This guitar is all stock except for upgraded locking tuners. Cosmetics are very good beyond some minor marks I've shown in pics below. Frets are clean with only minimal wear. No case or tremolo bar. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
All our setups are done by our in-house trained luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
