FENDER 2015 RARE LILAC 60s Stratocaster KING TONE & Custom Shop Mods Strat 4402
You're looking at a 2015 Fender Classic Series 60s Stratocaster Special Edition in Lilac. Really pretty color. Pictures don't do it justice. It's light lavender/lilac color like no other Fender you'll see. This guitar was given some upgrades. It has a Jesse Davey King Tone switch, which replaces the lower tone knob. You can Google it, but it's a $100 mod that gives you lots of blues tones, specifically Stevie Ray Vaughan sounds. The middle Tone knob does nothing. Also the pickups say Fender Custom Shop and all wiring is cloth. Pickguard and tremolo cover are also custom. Guitar is very pretty but has a few minor marks from playing (see pics). Set up great, playing great. Just given it a full cleaning, setup, and new strings. This was part of a limited run made in 2015 only for Guitar Center stores. No case or tremolo bar included. Thanks for looking!
See video demo of the King Tone Switch below.
