Need more info. Year and condition is really important, especially for the 70's. Figure out the year and get back to us.

Post some pics too!

Your guitar was made at the
Fullerton Plant (Fender - CBS Era), USA
in the Year(s): 1982 - 1983


A '70's ReIssue. What's it worth? My personal opinion about $500 - $700.

I'm not even sure about the reissue. It could be the photo but the headstock looks small. Could just be an 80's Strat.

My 72 has the serial # on the neck plate, and a bullet truss rod adjustment. It also has a 3 bolt neck with the Tilt Neck Micro Adjustment.

I've seen them for anywhere from $400-$1200 depending on condition and whether it's been modded. Nice guitars though. Some were really heavy.

The OP put this on the lounge forum too. Theres a bit of conjecture over there that it may just be a standard from 82/3 and not a reissue. The idea behind the thinking is that its due to a surpluss of 70's logo's.

"1982 Stratocaster Specs: The Standard Stratocaster is introduced at the January, 1982, Winter NAMM Show. Also known as the "Dan Smith Stratocaster," it features a look back to the pre-CBS period: four bolt neck attachment, body end truss rod adjustment (no headstock bullet), and a smaller, pre-CBS headstock (though the large, black, CBS-style logo is retained until 1983). The Standard Stratocaster also features the X-1 bridge pickup first introduced in the 1980 "Strat" (which accounts for the yellow wire leading from the bridge pickup in the sixth image below). Also introduced this year are two "reissue" models: the 1957 and 1962 American Vintage Reissues. The images below are of a 1982 Standard "Dan Smith" Stratocaster."

that is what you own.
