Fender Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '60s Pickups for Vintage Tone
The custom shop Fat '60s single-coil pickups on this Stratocaster deliver the classic Strat sound with added warmth and clarity. Hand-wound for precision, they produce articulate highs and rich mids, while the reverse-wound middle pickup eliminates unwanted hum. The master volume control features a tone-saver treble-bleed circuit, ensuring consistent high-end clarity when dialing down the volume. With the 5-way blade switch, players can explore a range of tonal combinations, from sparkling cleans to dynamic, overdriven crunch.
Premium Alder Body and Nitrocellulose Finish
This guitar's 2-piece select alder body contributes to its balanced tonal character, offering tight lows and shimmering highs. The offset seam design enhances resonance, making every note full and vibrant. Finished with nitrocellulose lacquer, the body allows the wood to breathe naturally, aging beautifully over time while maintaining a lightweight feel. The aged Seminole red finish and relic treatment create a visually stunning instrument that looks and feels as though it has seen decades of playing.
Maple Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard for Superior Feel
The maple neck on this Strat features an early '60s profile for a comfortable, vintage-inspired feel. Combined with a 3A rosewood fingerboard and Jescar vintage frets, the guitar provides smooth playability and effortless fretting. The vintage clay dot inlays and bone nut add classic aesthetics and reliable functionality, while the 25.5-inch scale length supports clean articulation and precise intonation across all 21 frets. The neck is finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, enhancing its tactile response and silky smooth surface.
