A very nice US built Stratocaster. Showing some signs of wear but should play nicely with a little bit of work.
I’ve seen worse but a dress is in order to get this one back to its best.Neck levelled, taped up to protect it and the fret tops marked. You could see the low points easily as soon as I started….All level…Next step, re-shape and polish each fret.With the frets done all that’s needed is to put the neck back on, re-string and carry out a setup.
Neck set….The action at the first fret.The action was a little high so I took the string slots down a little.Next the action at the 12th fret.Not too bad, but a little high. Did the outside strings first…and then the other strings to match the radius of the fretboard.All done. Many more years of playing left.
