Product Description
Key Features
- Heavy Relic - Aged to replicate the mesmerising aesthetics of a working guitarist's workhorse instrument. This relic treatment features the typical playwear, dings and decolourisation found on many of the most lusted-over instruments.
- Quarter Sawn Maple - Straight-grained and around 50% more stable than a traditional plain-sawn neck.
- Oval 60s C - The perfect middle ground between a modern slim C-shaped neck and a more vintage style shape. It perfectly hugs your hand without feeling clumpy.
- Jumbo - Jumbo frets are often favoured by players who require a faster-feeling neck with effortless bends and vibrato.
Custom Shop ‘60/’63 Pickups
Wound in-house by the Fender Custom Shop these ‘60/’63 Stratocaster pickups are the perfect complement to this Custom Shop ‘60s Stratocaster. Well-balanced and focused with a bell-like tone these pickups replicate some of the most sought-after electric guitar tones in history using the same components found on the originals such as Alnico V magnets and Formvar wire. The middle pickup is reverse wound/reverse-polarity for noise free performance in positions 2 and 4.
