I’m offering a 2004 Fender American Vintage Reissue ’57 Stratocaster – a highly sought-after early-2000s AVRI built in the USA, known for exceptional craftsmanship, period-correct specs, and true 1950s Stratocaster tone.
This particular example stands out with a beautiful flamed maple neck – a feature rarely seen on early-2000s AVRI models. The guitar is equipped with a black pickguard inspired by David Gilmour’s iconic 1957-based setup, giving it a bold, distinctive aesthetic while keeping the instrument entirely vintage-correct in function.
All electronics and pickups are fully original, including the classic Fender USA 57/62 single coils. These are known for their articulate, bell-like cleans, clear note separation, and that unmistakable vintage Strat bite.
Frets are in good condition, with no immediate work required.
The guitar comes with the original Fender hardcase.Specifications
