This Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition El Diablo Stratocaster in Cimarron Red Heavy Relic is a bold, hot-rodded take on the classic Strat formula. Built by the Fender Custom Shop and now available at Max Guitar, this model combines vintage styling with high-output performance and modern reliability.

The lightweight alder body is finished in a heavily aged nitrocellulose lacquer and paired with a raw aluminium pickguard, giving the guitar a striking, no-nonsense look. The quartersawn maple neck features a comfortable 10/56 V profile, a 9.5" radius, and 21 jumbo 6100 frets, offering excellent grip, smooth bends, and confident playability across the neck.

At its core are three Josefina hand-wound El Diablo Strat single coils, delivering hotter output than traditional Strat pickups while retaining clarity, snap, and dynamic response. These pickups excel at punchy rhythm work, cutting leads, and aggressive blues-rock tones. The Tone-Saver treble bleed and Greasebucket tone circuit ensure consistent clarity and control, even when rolling back the volume.

Hardware includes a vintage-style synchronized tremolo and vintage-style tuners, keeping the feel classic and stable. The guitar ships in a Custom Shop deluxe hard case and includes the Certificate of Authenticity and case candy.

Amazing Strat in a really pretty finish which is aged perfectly.
Nice playable neck, and the guitar resonates really well.
The guitar is in very good shape
