NGD: RARE White Fender American Special Stratocaster

bluesguitar65 · 01-24-2012, 12:48 PM

My new RARE white color Fender American Special Stratocaster. This was only in production for one year, 2010 for Guitar Center only. I was so lucky find her new and was still in the box. She was forgotten and stored in the stock room and was recently found over the weekend while GC was cleaning out their inventory. Got her at a clearance price also, since she is old stock, 2010 model. Got her $650 with gig bag out the door!!!!

That thing is sweet...I also hate it, I can feel the GAS coming on.

Perhaps I've suppressed my desire for a white Strat for too long.

coldsteal2 · 01-25-2012, 06:22 AM

you are right you cant find a Fender American Special in White
anymore, looks like all the stores are stuck with a bunch of
sunbursts.

benjammin420 · 01-25-2012, 07:31 AM

That´s a beauty

I tried a American Special a while back and it was really good right of the shelf with no perticular setup, couldn´t afford it thoug but i´m selling one of my guitars so i will have either a American Special or a American Vintage 70s Olympic White with Maple neck
