First i want to say to good day to all the people here at the forum. This is my first time to post a forum, due to the curiosity of my 2nd hand stratocaster. The buyer told me it is a vintage guitar. so i thought it will best if ill have one for my personal record. Hope you can help me give me a details or information.

this are the spec based from what i have seen on the guitar:

1. Its Made in Japan
2. The serial is E8+5 digits
3. HSS pickups
4. price $400
5. Bought it without a string, so never tried how would it feel when to play or hear the sound plugged on amp. (i havent test it up to now, just kept it inside a guitar case)
6. there is no tremolo bar

Pictures are attached for you to see.

my questions:

1. did i made the right decision? was the price too high?
2. how am i going to prove its original?
3. Can i fixed/ repair just in case pickups (HSS) will not work, or any other defect i will find.
4. which specific model is this?
5. can i buy tremolo bar that will fit into it?
6. details/information about the guitar???
