This is a genuine mid-1980s Fender USA Stratocaster featuring an original factory green metallic finish verified by neck-pocket inspection (factory overspray, paint stick shadow, and production markings present).
Serial number E401835 places the neck in the Fender USA E-series range (1984–1987), from Fender’s important transition era. The guitar features a classic Strat configuration with modern playability and a unique factory color not found in standard catalogs of the period, consistent with special-order / limited production finishes Fender occasionally produced in the mid-80s.
This is a player-grade vintage Strat with authentic Fender DNA, excellent feel, and a standout look.
