    Beautiful, smooth playing and sounding, near mint condition 1982 "Dan Smith" Standard Stratocaster. Light tobacco colored 3 tone sunburst finish. Rare hardtail version (although not as sought after as the tremolo version, hardtails provide much greater sustain than their counterparts.). All original parts (pickups, tuners bridge, nut, switches, etc.) and no modifications. 


    Serial number (E 203066), date of purchase (3/83), as well as other "Dan Smith" features, such as 4 bolt neck plate, three control knobs, 5 position switch, F-tuners, 21 frets, and smaller headstock with previous era logo, indicate a 1982 manufacture date at the Fullerton, CA plan. 
I bought this from the original owner last year and you can tell the guitar has been rarely used over the past 27 years, as he said, staying primarily in its original hard-shell case at the back of a closet for that time. See attached pics for appearance and condition. Has two very minor nicks on the body finish -- a small nick to edge of left side cutaway, just above the pickguard; pinhead size nick in finish on bottom left of back of guitar. (More pics a various portions of guitar available upon request). Has original paperwork (Fender manual tag, inspection tag, pack of unnecessary tremolo springs, and original bill of sale from Manny's Music in NYC ((back when they were “Manny’s Music” and not an outlet of Sam Ash) dated 3/26/1983) 


    Asking $1,350.00 or best offer. Comes with guitar as shown, original case, and paperwork. 
Please, local cash sales only.
