COMMENTS
Also called Polka Dot Buddy Guy Stratocaster
​Few Buddy Guy Made in Mexico had a "MSN" prefix serial number. The "N" usually refers to a '90s Fender, but for this signature it is not true (production started in 2002). The exact manufacture date could be find under the pickguard, in the neck pocket or on the neck heel

FENDER SAYS
Nail Buddy Guy's stinging tone and vibe on the dot with the Buddy Guy Standard Stratocaster. With a bold polka-dot finish as flamboyant as Guy himself, it's likely one of the most distinctive Strat models you'll ever lay eyes (and hands) on. And with pure tone and vintage-style features, it's a superbly spot-on performer worthy of one of the greatest names in electric blues.
