1970s Westminster Stratocaster Sunburst/Maple

This is a vintage Japan-made guitar with a Westminster-made "Sunburst" maple neck from the 1970s. It is a premium all-original piece with historical value. The glossy body is in excellent condition, and the original fret and nut are still firmly in place.

One of the unique features of this guitar is the steel press saddle and inlaid block-shaped tremolo plate. This is a deviation from the die-cast type commonly found in Japan vintage strats. The height adjustment of the steel press saddle's imoneji is also a minus screw specification. The pickguard is a white/black 2-ply specification.

The guitar weighs 3.4 kg and is lightweight. Although the details of the body material are unknown, it is not made of alder or ash. The fingerboard part of the neck feels quite flat compared to a vintage strat. This vintage collection guitar is a rare find and would be a great addition to any collection.
