Fender Stratocaster 1979 Cream

$3,199.00

The 1979 Fender Stratocaster in cream (originally Olympic White, aged to a warm hue) captures the bold styling and tone of late-’70s Fender. Built with an ash body, maple neck, and three vintage single-coils, it delivers bright, punchy clarity with plenty of sustain. Its large headstock, bullet truss rod, and heavier build make it a distinctive Strat from an era that blends vintage character with rock-ready durability.
