Fender 2011 American Special Stratocaster HSS Sunburst Clean Bag & Papers 20731
Description
This is a 2011 Fender American Special Stratocaster HSS in 3-color Sunburst finish. Features:
— Alder body, maple neck, rosewood board
— Modern C-profile, 9.5" radius neck
— Atomic humbucker + 2 CS Texas Special single coils
This is a very pretty Strat with a satin back neck that is nearly flawless with no dents or scuffs (see pics). Feels super smooth in the hands. Jumbo frets with lots of life and only some mild grooving starting on first five frets but very playable.
Cosmetically, the guitar is suprisingly clean. At 12 years old, not a single real ding. I found one tiny mark on back and it has plenty of mild scuffing, but again, no drops, scratches or big marks. It appears to have been pampered. Comes with nice Road Runner bag, tremolo bar, and some original paperwork. Weight is 7 pounds, 10 ounces. Details on my setups, packing, and full manufacturer’s specs at bottom of listing. Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
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 15 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 "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
