Fender Stratocaster Manual: How to Buy, Maintain and Set Up the World's Most Popular Electric Guitar

by PaulBalmer (Author)

Synopsis

Leo Fender launched the Stratocaster electric guitar in 1954, as an upgrade to his revolutionary Telecaster. The 'Strat' - streamlined, chrome-plated, efficient, fast and sexy - soon gained icon status. Today, while original models change hands for thousands of dollars, almost identical Stratocasters are mass-produced by Fender USA for sale worldwide. The 'Strat' remains a low-maintenance 'good little runner' and, with the help of this practical 'how to' manual, will last a lifetime.
