My wife surprised me with this amazing MIJ strat today. From the serial number and the bridge it looks to be an 84-87 contemporary its one of the few guitars that has the Made in USA Kahler stamped bridge. I am very happy it plays amazing but I will definitely have to to clean it up. It was also awesome that it came with a vintage fender case.

Very nice gift.

From what I remember and can verify from other sources that would be the "second version" of the "Contemporary Standard" from that 1985-1989 era. The first vesion had the Fender System 1 trems. I guess Fender had issues with all of those System trems so they started using the Kahler trems like on your guitar. The final version used the Kahler Spyder trem (a Floyd Rose licensed design).

You must do some serious home improvement work to warrant that sort of indlegence.

Either that, or she has some serious "too many new shoes" guilt..

My wife has never bought me a guitar. The closest she has come was to say, okay, you can buy that guitar - but only ONE!

Then there are the ones she doesn't know about...
