I'm still getting over the jet lag from this amazing trip to London, England to buy a Fender Stratocaster 1962 Fiesta Red! I purchased the guitar from the brother of its original owner in the town of Bracknell outside of London. The guitar was played a lot with the original owner's band The Strollers back in the 1960s with pictures to prove it. Although it was played a lot, it's still completely original throughout with no changed parts or modifications.
You may be wondering if this is what many refer to as a Selmer Refin since they're rather common in that part of the world. This is a Fender factory original Fiesta Red finish since it has the cool desert sand colored undercoat with no Sunburst underneath, clear nail holes, and nice crisp cavity edges. Have a look for yourself!
