Description (More pics below)
This is a 2002 Fender Jimmie Vaughan Strat in Olympic White with gold anodized metal pickguard. Really nice playing Strat. (Watch people claiming to have a 1996/97 JV. The dates on these need to be verified in the neck pocket, NOT by serial number. True early models will have an 8-screw pickguard.) 

Condition
Cosmetically this Strat is very clean for a 22-year-vintage instrument. You can find a couple small areas where the Oly white is starting to yellow a bit (tried to show in pics), but it’s minor. Beyond that a few very small marks. Frets are in very good condition, some mild wear, no grooves showing. Pickguard upgraded to an 8-hole metal anodized bronze. Bridge pickup changed to another flavor of Fender pickup with higher output.

Features
— Alder body, maple neck

— 9.5” radius, chunky soft V neck w/ medium frets

— 6-saddle American Synchronized Tremolo

Sound & Playability
This Strat feels amazing in the hands. One of the nicest feeling Strats I’ve come across in a while. The V neck feels chunky and full in the hand. Nice Strat sound with some added “umph” from the hotter bridge pickup. Comes with tremolo bar, gig bag and paperwork. I do a full setup and expert packing: details below. Thanks for looking!

Neck Specs
25.5” scale, 9.5” radius V neck, 21 frets
Width at nut: 1.65”
Thickness at 1st fret: .91”
Thickness at 12th fret: .93"

About Me
My store is a one-person small business that has been selling used guitars and basses for 15 years now. I do a basic setup and cleaning on every instrument I sell, so depending on workload it may be 1-2 business days before your guitar ships. When it arrives you can depend on it being, clean, set up, and securely packed. Check my feedback for confirmation. Thanks!

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. 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.

Manufacturer Info
TEXAS BLUES, VAUGHAN STYLEOne of the great names in Texas blues, Jimmie Vaughan has always wielded a Stratocaster® with masterful voice and feel. His signature model, the Jimmie Vaughan Tex-Mex Strat, gives you masterful voice and feel, too, with an original-era Stratocaster look and some special hot-rodded Vaughan modifications that make it a fiery performer with a distinctive touch of Tejano vibe.Features

  • Tinted maple neck with "soft V" profile
  • 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets
  • Tex-Mex single-coil neck and middle pickups (no tone control on middle pickup)
  • Extra-hot Tex-Mex single-coil bridge pickup
  • Five-way pickup switch
  • Single-ply white pickguard

While he's not the guitar superstar that his brother the late Stevie Ray Vaughan was, Jimmie has nonetheless carved out a special place in modern music for himself with his blistering hot tone. The Jimmie Vaughan Tex-Mex Strat guitar features an alder body, a specially shaped and tinted maple neck equipped with medium-jumbo frets, vintage hardware, and a single-ply white pickguard. Single-coil Tex-Mex pickups occupy the neck and middle positions and an extra-hot Tex-Mex bridge pickup with special wiring adds just the right amount of extra spice and bite. Best of all, this Jimmie Vaughan Strat comes with a shockingly low Sweetwater price!

Just like Jimmie's own guitar

When you think of the classic, searing hot roadhouse blues Strat sound, that's exactly the tone Jimmie Vaughan prefers. It's a bit dirty — though not to the point of true distortion — and its bite is as sharp as razor wire! If that's the sound you're after and you aren't particularly keen on emptying your bank account to get it, then this is unquestionably the guitar for you! The Olympic White polyurethane finish gives this Strat a classic look, and the custom-contoured body makes it amazingly comfortable to play whether you're sitting or standing. The American Vintage synchronized tremolo tailpiece lets you bend notes or entire chords up or down with remarkable tuning stability. The bottom line is clear: this is a Strat that delivers the superior tone and playability you want at a price that's sure to please!

Blistering roadhouse blues sound

The original Strat had three single-coil pickups, so it was able to produce sounds that no other guitar could deliver - particularly once players discovered they could lodge the 3-position blade switch in those in between positions to access different combinations. These were often erroneously referred to as the out-of-phase settings. The Jimmie Vaughan Strat comes standard with a modern 5-way blade switch, making it easy to access all the pickup combinations. To deliver on the promise of a blistering hot roadhouse blues sound, there are two Tex-Mex calibrated, overwound single coils in the neck and middle positions, along with a specially wound Tex-Mex Hot Bridge single coil. It's the perfect blend of classic Strat spank and sparkle along with a searing hot lead sound in any of the five pickup positions that will cut through any mix.

Fast-playing maple neck with soft V shape
Leo Fender wasn't afraid to think outside the box when it came to guitar designs - after all, he was an engineer, not a guitar player. In the 1950s and well into the 1970s, the blonde natural maple neck became almost synonymous with Fender guitars. The Jimmie Vaughan Stratocaster comes with a 1-piece, tinted maple neck and fingerboard so you get the authentic vintage look of a guitar that's played a thousand weekend gigs at hot, smoky clubs and bars. Next, add 21 medium-jumbo frets and Jimmie's personal favorite soft V shape. In keeping with contemporary player preferences, the fast-playing neck is finished in a smooth satin polyurethane.
