DescriptionClean and extended sound, rare model
The documentation states that this instrument was produced from 1955 to 1957, but the pot date for this instrument is 1958. There is no evidence of replacement, so I think it was still being produced until 1958.
Compared to the usual Fender steel, these are very few and precious instruments.
This model is named after Mr. Forrest White who was the manager of the FENDER factory at that time, so it does not have the FENDER logo, but of course it is made by FENDER.
It is only available in white, with a set of white plastic covers, and a matching white amplifier was also released at the same time.
Specs are the same as the STUDIO DELUXE, so the clean and extended tone is the same.
The pickups, assembly, controls, and pegs are all still original.
There are quite a few scratches on the paint and playing flaws, but it is in pretty good condition for an instrument that is almost 70 years old.
The three stands and stoppers, etc. are solid and can be used as is normally.
The tone is clean and core with a solid sustain.
When lightly overdriven, it has good texture and is good for Hawaiian as well as country-touch rock sounds.
The subtle glossy tone can only be achieved by a Fender.
It comes with the original hard case of the time.
