2010 Fender Custom Shop 1960 STRATOCASTER Relic


3 Tone Sunburst - Time Machine Magic

The '60s are regarded as rock's finest years, and the Fender Strat the axe of choice that made it all happen. Buddy Holly, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Jerry Garcia, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan and the list goes on, many of the best guitarists of all time, all have one thing in common ...their axe!

This Custom Shop 1960 3-Tone Sunburst Strat was handcrafted to the exact specs of the legendary original 1960 Strat, including body contours and radii, neck shape, fingerboard and radius, pickups, and electronics, using original materials, tooling, and production techniques whenever possible. She has a custom contoured alder body, a 7.25" Radius Maple neck and and a sweet Sunburst finish, hand Relic-d to look exactly like a 1960 Stratocaster would look and feel today, worn, played and loved! She has a dark 21-fret rosewood "slab" fingerboard, the Custom Shop logo stamped on the back of the headstock, an aged mint green pickguard, nickel hardware and 3 Custom original spec '60s single coil, STAGGERED POLE pickups. Renowned for their accuracy and sound, these pickups really HONK! This guitar is extremely resonant and has incredible sustain. She screams Hendrix/SRV with great harmonics and overtones, powerful, punchy and sweet too! With this guitar you'll play better than you've ever played before!

This guitar is brand new, all original and light weight (8 lbs 3 ozs) and comes complete with all the goodies, including the original Fender Deluxe Vintage Reissue hardshell case, strap, cord, Certificate of Authenticity from the Fender Custom Shop, goodie bag and more.
