The two-piece select alder body wears Journeyman Relic® lacquer finishes in Super Faded Aged Shell Pink, Super Faded Aged Sonic Blue, Faded Aged Sea Foam Green and Faded Aged Sherwood Green Metallic for the authentically worn-in look and feel of a family heirloom instrument that’s been handed down through the years.
Classic appointments from the end of the decade are featured up and down the guitar: quartersawn maple neck with ’59-style “D” back-shape and flat-laminated rosewood fingerboard bring out the best in tone and playability. Armed with a trio of Custom Shop hand-wound Fat ‘50s Stratocaster® pickups, Vintage Modified #2 wiring and Tone-Save bleed circuitry, there’s no shortage of sought after golden era tone.
Other premium features include 9.5" radius, 21 narrow tall (6105) frets, 5-way switch, 3-ply mint green pickguard, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, wing string tree with tall metal spacer, deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
