Description
Description
The Honey Blonde finish, which highlights the beautiful grain of the ash used for the body, is a perfect match for the anodized pickguard.
The Fender Custom Shop is the pinnacle of Fender's tradition, boasting the highest level of precision and technical expertise through handcrafting. From vintage styles that follow the original to modern styles with superior playability, the shop offers the finest products that players desire, catering to a wide range of user needs. The high quality you can feel the moment you pick up a guitar is worthy of being called the pinnacle of perfection.
This American Custom Stratocaster boasts player-friendly specs, including locking tuning machines, a narrow-tall, 22-fret design, and a 9.5-inch radius. The body and neck are crafted from a visually appealing ash and roasted flame maple combination. The heel-cut joint ensures excellent playability even in the upper registers. Meanwhile, the bridge unit is a vintage-style six-point support, and the truss rod is adjustable at the headstock, ensuring modern playability while retaining a classic Fender sound.
The hand-wound Fat 60 Stratocaster pickups provide a modest output without any lag, and respond quickly and naturally to picking. The low and high ranges are excellent, and the guitar's excellent balance is transmitted through the speakers with a finely tuned feel. Even when the guitar is driven, it maintains its natural balance, delivering just the right amount of Fender wildness. In addition to the individual appeal of the guitar and pickups, the guitar and pickups also seem to work perfectly together.
The tone controls are divided into neck and middle positions and bridge position, and can be controlled in all positions.
With an ash body, a soft V-shaped neck with beautiful flame grain, and pickups with a quick, attacking character, this Stratocaster combines excellent playability with a '50s vibe.
*As for the condition, there is slight wear on the frets in the low positions, but about 80% remains, and there is also plenty of room in the truss rod.
The electrical system is also in good condition, with some slight paint burns, some discoloration on the anodized guard due to rubbing, a few small dents in the body paint, shallow scratches, and some cloudiness on the metal parts.
*Please refer to the photos for any particularly noticeable scratches.
