This 1961 Stratocaster has a roasted ash body, a roasted quarter sawn maple neck, round-laminated indian-rosewood fingerboard with 9.5" radius, 21 jumbo frets and a chunky C-shaped profile. The pickups are a trio of hand-wound Texas Special elements, with an RWRP middle element. The pickups are switchable via a traditional 5-position circuit with Vintage Mod 2 wiring, which lets players blend the neck and bridge pickup in switch positions 1 and 2. The bridge is a Custom Shop vintage synchonized tremolo and the tuners are vintage "Kluson-style."
The Strat sounds authentic, old and woody. Actually; it sounds the way it looks. And we mean that in the most positive sense! This is a very musical and inspiring Strat that sounds as twangy as it sounds fat. It pack a bunch of low end and all the definition in its top end. An awesome guitar for someone who is rock / blues minded and wants a Stratocaster for heavier playing.
Fender's Custom Shop luthiers have mastered the craft of applying the aged look like no other. This Limited Edition has a highly detailed and handcrafted Super Heavy Relic finish.
Included is the deluxe, original Fender case, matching accessories and, of course, the certificate.
