Overview

A meticulous recreation of one of Strat's best years.

The Fender 1969 Stratocaster Heavy Relic Electric Guitar with Rosewood Fretboard offers the aficionado an intriguing combination of style and features. It sports a reverse headstock and relic treatment for the look of a road warrior that's been played, but not abused. The quartersawn maple neck has a 1969 U profile and 6105 wire frets for a comfortable late-'60s feel.

Electronics include three handwound singlecoil pickups with no special wiring for piercing, authentic tone. A vintage tremolo and tuners round out the hardware package of this special instrument. Includes hardshell case and assorted accessories.
