Fender Custom Shop ’62 Stratocaster Electric Guitar, Heavy Relic, Lake Placid Blue
The world-famous Fender Custom Shop produces some of the most sonically stellar and aesthetically outstanding instruments available today. With each guitar being a true one of a kind, every Fender Custom Shop guitar we see come through our shops is an impressive combination of sight and sound.
This Fender Custom Shop ’62 Stratocaster begins with an ash body paired with a 5/4 quarter sawn maple neck in a ’60 Style Oval “C” profile. The 9MM AAA rosewood fingerboard features twenty one frets with 6105 Sanko fret wire. This Custom Shop is fashioned with a Fender Custom Shop Heavy Relic finish treatment that shows across the body, neck, and fingerboard. This finish treatment shows checking and dings across the body while showing off the natural beauty of the woods. Three ’60 Strat Relic single-coil pickups produce the crystalline cleans and hearty snaps associated with the iconic instrument. The middle pickup is wound for reverse polarity. This Custom Shop Stratocaster brings out the best in Fender’s careful eye for tasteful wear and discerning ear for tonality.
