Product Description
Andertons are pleased to offer this jaw-dropping Fender Custom Shop American Custom Stratocaster in Violin Burst. Featuring a stunning AAA-grade flamed roasted Maple neck, this Strat stands out in any crowd, and thanks to its roasting process, this guitar feels lively and resonant with a powerful singing sustain.
Featuring a trio of Custom Shop ’69 Stratocaster pickups, this Strat provides the quintessential bell-like, woody Strat tones reminiscent of the classic Woodstock era. In contrast, its Modern C-shaped neck profile, sleek compound fingerboard radius and ‘ultra’ body contours provide a streamlined and modern-feeling Strat that’s perfect for players who prioritise precision and technique over tradition. Also featuring Fender’s ½ blender control, this Strat comes equipped with even more versatility thanks to its additional pickup combinations, perfect for players seeking the ultimate single-coil-equipped workhorse that can do it all from vintage to modern.
Underwound ‘69 Pickups
Arguably the most iconic sound in Strat history. The Custom Shop Underwound ‘69 pickups feature all the authentic ingredients to recreate the historic Woodstock Stratocaster tones - Alnico 5 magnets, Grey Fibre Bobbins, Enamel-Coated Magnet Wire and of course, period-correct pull-back Cloth Wire. Their thumping low-end, sparkling bell-like highs and strong dynamics produce a clear and powerful tone.
Modern C Shape Neck
Fender's comfortable modern C shape neck profile is renowned for being Fender's one-size-fits-all neck profile. With enough wood to make even the most die-hard lovers of a chunky neck feel at home, the Fender C remains ergonomic and fast-feeling up and down the fingerboard.
Compound Radius
The Compound or sometimes called Conical fingerboard radius ensures maximum comfort and playability no matter what style you are playing or where on the neck you are. From around the 12th fret, the fingerboard radius flattens out to create a faster-feeling neck and to make bending and more technical playing feel effortless.
