This is a very fine example of the work that the Fender Custom Shop can do when they really want to. Superior craftsmanship, great wood selection, and attention to detail combine to produce a guitar that is visually appealing, great playing, and awesome sounding. Classic Fender tone on a first class playing instrument!
This particular copy features an ash body, flame maple neck and maple fretboard. The neck wood is one of the nicest we’ve seen on any instrument, particularly a Fender. The Texas Special pickups produce a fantastic, clean Fender tone as well as a raunchy crunch lead tone. It’s one fantastic Strat.
