Fender Custom Shop Artisan Okoume Stratocaster

For the discerning player with an eye for beauty, Artisan series instruments are works of art crafted with purity of design in mind. Each instrument blends high-end appointments with original-era features for a one-of-a-kind Custom Shop experience. From exotic tone woods to handwound pickups, no design touch is too ornate, yet each instrument is distinctly Fender.

The Artisan Okoume Stratocaster is a perfect combination of striking form and legendary Fender functionality. Mesmerizing in looks and sound, its '56 Strat® body is crafted from premium okoume and finished in classic chocolate sunburst. Featuring a comfortable 10/56 "V" profile, the bird's-eye maple neck is "roasted" to a dark caramel color to match the body’s edges and finished with nitrocellulose lacquer for ultimate breathability and feel. Complete with gold hardware, a trio of handwound single-coil '69 Strat pickups and a wealth of cosmetic upgrades, each unique model is a feast for eyes and ears alike.

Other features include a 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage tall frets and bone nut, headstock with gold foil Fender logo, gold American Vintage Strat bridge, '50s-style truss rod adjustment, vintage-correct knobs and parchment pickguard, five-way switching and more.
