Fender Elite Stratocaster with Maple Fretboard 1983 - 1984 Black

The Elite Stratocaster was an effort to integrate active electronics into an upgraded Stratocaster design.  While sharing many elements with a traditional Stratocaster, the Elite used a different tremolo bridge, individual push pickup selectors and EQ-boosting TBX and MDX circuits. The Elite was only produced for two years, but the later Stratocaster Plus does share some features with it.This is a beautiful 1983 USA made Fender Stratocaster Elite with Jet Black finish that has aged well there is some minor buckle rash on the back, and a couple dings (please see photos) all original with that rare freeflyte tremolo! Has that awesome vintage Fender tone from the original pickups provided. The neck has a great feel and plays buttery smooth  the active circuitry and button configurations add a nice range to the tonal possibilities of this old Fender Elite.  Thanks for looking and have a fantastic day!
