1992 Fender Stratocaster Plus – Frosted Blue Burst (USA)
A beautifully preserved early-90s example of the renowned Strat Plus series, finished in the distinctive Frosted Blue Burst that subtly reveals the ash grain beneath its translucent blue glow. A Strat that sits in that sweet transitional era where Fender blended vintage instincts with modern engineering confidence.
The Fender Stratocaster Plus is widely respected for its refined hardware package and exceptionally stable performance, making it one of the most forward-thinking Stratocasters of its time while still feeling unmistakably “Strat” in the hands.
Key Features & Specification
Strat Plus platform engineering
Equipped with Schaller locking tuners and a Wilkinson roller nut, offering smooth tremolo use with impressive tuning stability and low friction feel.
Pickup upgrade for classic voice
Originally fitted with Lace Sensor pickups, this example has been upgraded to Fender American Standard single-coils, shifting the tonal character toward a more open, familiar Strat voice with clear highs, balanced mids, and that signature glassy chime.
Comfort-driven neck and resonance
Maple neck paired with a rosewood fingerboard, offering a comfortable, familiar feel with the natural warmth and articulation associated with early-90s USA Fender construction.
Original case included
Supplied with its original Fender hard shell case.
Condition Report
This is a clean and well-kept vintage instrument with honest, light wear consistent with age:
- Small paint chip on the rear of the body
- Small chip on the upper horn edge
- General light surface wear from use over time
No structural issues, no functional concerns. Plays and performs exactly as a good Strat Plus should.
Why This Guitar Stands Out
The early Strat Plus era occupies a unique space in Fender history, combining dependable modern hardware with the core Strat DNA players still chase today. This example adds a tasteful and reversible-leaning tonal upgrade while retaining its original character, making it equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in a serious collection.
A Strat for someone who wants reliability without losing personality, and clarity without losing soul.
