Product Description
Beautifully presented in Texas Tea, Andertons are pleased to offer this exemplary Fender Custom Shop American Stratocaster. Elegantly finished off with Gold hardware and a Roasted AA Birdseye Maple neck, this Strat is guaranteed to turn heads wherever you bring it out.
Featuring a trio of Handwound Fat ‘50s pickups, this Strat provides the quintessential bell-like chime and articulation found in ‘50s Strats but turned up to 11. Its ‘60s Oval C-shaped neck feels comfortable in all playing positions, and its beautiful NOS finish helps capture the true look and mojo of the 1950s.
‘60s C Oval Shape Neck
The neck that can do everything! Not too thin and not too fat, just right no matter what style of playing you want to play that day. The neck is big enough that you can still wrap your thumb over and feel the whole guitar shake as you strum the strings as hard as you can yet still thin enough that you can effortlessly shred up and down the neck.
Fat ‘50s
Designed and wound at the Custom Shop, the Fat ‘50s Strat pickups perfectly capture the esteemed articulation and bell-like quality of a classic ‘50s Stratocaster with a few updated tweaks. Made using period-correct fibre bobbins, cloth wire, hand-bevelled staggered Alnico V magnets, and Formvar magnet wire, these pickups provide authentic vintage Strat tones with a musical midrange and dynamics. They have been overwound for extra bite and more power in the low-end and the middle pickup is RWRP for no noise in positions 2 and 4.
Fender Custom Shop
The Fender Dream Factory… Fender’s best luthiers, using the best materials and tools all under one roof with the single unified mission of building the best guitars that Fender has ever produced. Founded in 1987, the Custom Shop was established to take Fender’s manufacturing back to its roots with smaller production numbers and higher quality. Famed for pushing Leo's designs to their absolute limits, the Custom Shop is the benchmark to which all other Fender electric guitars are compared to!
Features
- NOS - One of the most popular finish options in the Fender Custom Shop. A New Old Stock guitar looks exactly how it would have looked the day it left the factory, however many years ago. It’s as close to having a time machine as we can offer!
- Compound Radius - With its rounder 9.5’’ radius by the nut and flatter 12’’ radius from the 12th fret, this Strat offers maximum comfort up and down the neck.
- 1/2 Blender - The 1/2 Strat Blender allows even more tonal capabilities, allowing you to blend the neck pickup into positions 1 or 2.
