The international series was a run of special ?country-inspired' strats back in the early 80s. This example is finished in Maui blue

It's in very good condition for its age, with some wear and blemishes as you'd expect on a 44 year old vintage guitar. The finish is starting to age and change colour giving it a vintage vibe and there's some light wear to the frets which is cosmetic only, and not effecting playability. Everything works as it should without issue
