I got this beauty today from a local neighborhood buddy for $400 with a deluxe Gig bag.

Its a Fender MIM Standard Stratocaster Plus Top Aged Cherry Burst installed with a pearloid pickguard with Fender 2019 Player Statocaster series pickups (alnico Vs). It originally had Ceramic pickups.

Sounds and plays well. Looks even better than I thought.

Great deal for a 10 year old guitar.

Bought all these 3 in 2025 for amazing prices.

Cardinal Red 50s Standard - $2k

Sixty Cherry 60s Standard - $1.9k

Ultra 2 Ultraburst Strat - $1.6k

Really love these and probably the best 3 guitars I've ever own. The 50s neck is so amazing on the Red. The tuning stability and noiseless pickups are amazing on the ultra, it sounds incredible with Shimmer and Reverse reverbs. The cherry looks the best and I cant put it down.

If I ever had to sell one. I would never know which one to let go.
