This Fernandes Stratocaster is a certified sleeper shredder, offering the classic "S-style" aesthetic with a high-performance feel. Fernandes gained a massive reputation in the 80s and 90s for producing instruments that often rivaled their American counterparts in build quality and resonance. Finished in sleek black, this guitar is a versatile workhorse that can handle everything from clean blues to high-gain leads.
This instrument has been professionally set up at factory specifications in our shop and is playing just fine. Please note that the frets are quite low, giving it a fast, "fretless wonder" type feel that remains level and buzz-free across the board. Cosmetically, it shows its history as a player's guitar, including a prominent scratch on the face of the body caused by the tremolo arm. Despite these signs of use, it remains a solid, structurally sound instrument.
Weighing in at 7 lbs 5 oz, it has a balanced and comfortable feel that won't wear you out during long sessions. It features a traditional three single-coil pickup configuration, a 5-way selector switch, and a vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge, providing all the classic chime and quack you expect from a high-quality Strat-style guitar.
