If you've got the looks, you may as well show them off! The Fender Custom Shop have gone to every length to make the Artisan series Stratocaster look and play like absolute perfection. As always with the Custom Shop, this special guitar is built to the highest quality by their renowned luthiers and kitted out with completely unique specs to the Fender range.
Construction
The Artisan Strat's major highlight is of course the stunning blend of exotic woods. The simply incredible AAAA maple burl top has been matched with an equally dazzling roasted alder body. The roasting process rids the wood of imperfections and gives it a luxurious caramel colour.
Attached is a neck featuring both classic and contemporary touches. The 1963 "C" shape will be extremely familiar to anyone who's played a Fender Strat before, while the 9.5"-12" compound radius ebony fretboard makes those leads higher up on the narrow jumbo frets that bit less strenuous.
Sound
Fender Custom Shop guitars sound as good as they look, and the Artisan Strat is no exception. It's equipped with a trio of hand-wound Fat '60s Single coils, which balance a strong full range frequency and sharp articulation. '60s Fender pickups also sound great matched up with crunch or fuzz tones.
