Fender Stratocaster (4 bolts) Olympic White de 1971

Here's a superb Fender Stratocaster in its iconic Olympic White finish, dating from 1971.

It's a true collector's item, witnessing a pivotal era for Fender, with its 4-bolt neck, a feature that distinguishes this guitar from the later 3-bolt models that appeared later in the year. Fender switched to 3-bolts in 1971 until 1979.

The 3-bolt Neck has been shunned by musicians since its arrival, making this configuration one of the most sought-after among collectors.

Displaying the emblematic specifications of the Jimi Hendrix era. With a mix of components dating from 1969 and 1971, this guitar offers authentic '60s/'70s sound and feel.

This 1971 Stratocaster is also one of the last with steelblock-tremolo and Fender PAT Pending saddles.

This Fender Stratocaster is a rare and sought-after piece, especially in Olympic White. The finish has aged to a superb creamy hue, adding even more character to this already aesthetically superb guitar.

This Stratocaster's wide headstock, combined with F-logo tuning, classic single string tree, maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and pearl dot give it real Mojo.

Grey-bottom pickups deliver a clear, powerful vintage sound, while the alder body and maple neck with rosewood fingerboard give this guitar exceptional playability and resonance.
