Up for sale, a 2014 Fender Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster, showroom-clean and complete with the original molded hardshell case. This USA-made Strat was produced in limited quantities, featuring a unique sandblasted finish on the ash body, leaving the surface grain exposed and textured, with a satin Sapphire Blue finish and black grain-filler.
The tonewoods deliver a lively quality with glassy treble cut and great midrange detail, translating faithfully via the American Standard single coils. In addition to the usual range of Strat sounds, the No-Load Tone control at the second Tone knob (functioning for both the middle and bridge pickups) bypasses the tone control circuitry when dimed for a true “all the way up” sound. This Limited Edition Sandblasted Stratocaster weighs 8lbs 4oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
