With tone as hot as the Sonoran sun and looks as worn-in as an old pair of boots, the allure of the Limited Edition Red Hot Strat will captivate any player, aficionado or collector, and have them begging for a glass of ice water. A two-piece hand-selected ash body with deep contours wears a super heavy relic lacquer finish, creating a one-of-a-kind work of art in each build. A tinted 2A flame maple neck with 2A flame maple fingerboard sports a fat, comfortable 1959 “D” profile, 9.5” fingerboard radius and 21 narrow tall (6105) frets.

Overwound Red Hot Strat® pickups provide searing hot tone and are hooked up to a five-way switch and vintage modified #2 wiring with a Greasebucket tone circuit for perfectly rolled-off high frequencies and full mid-range. Additionally, the guitar features a transitional 11-hole single-ply parchment pickguard, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut and wing string tree with a metal spacer. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.

Note: After close inspection, this instrument is free of any major wear, marks and/or blemishes. (See pics)
