No dirt, polyurethane or shoe polish used in any of our relics.

No expense in quality or time was spared to get that custom shop look, feel and sound without shelling out $4-7K. Make Guitarwacky’s Custom Relics your “affordable” alternative. Guitarwacky Custom Relic Finishes ages-the finest affordable American Fender Relic Stratocasters and Telecasters on the market today-with the exception of metal flake finishes; typically under $1500.
Just completed: 7lb 9oz American Fender Stratocaster Custom Relic Green Sparkle. This stunning nitrocellulose lacquer finish was professionally aged by hand to perfection. This is not an assembly line produced finish. Guitarwacky's proprietary finish is top quality and was developed over time. The base coat is gold candy pearl lacquer. The flake coats were Custom Lil Daddy Roth "Lime Squeezer Green ". Roth pearls and paints are the essence of 50's-60's cool vintage vibe. This muted vintage green metal flake just pops! Some pics taken in sun light.
Next, the Alder body received the ultimate Guitarwacky proprietary pigment age treatment including tons of vintage shattered glass finish checking. That's finish checking on several layers of lacquer; horizontal and vertical. This process defines vintage instruments. The finish product is authentic and gorgeous; see for yourself.

Gary Grant – June 19, 2020I have been watching these relic models come up for sale for about about a year. I told myself if a blue metal flake HSS ever came up, I would buy it. Last weekend it happened! Great seller. Thanks Bob for the unique piece. I'll be playing it live tomorrow night and Saturday night, and I'm sure years to come!

Great guitar and great seller. Good communication and fast shipment with well protected packaging. Thanks!Kevin M. – Mar 13th, 2020
The relic is absolutely beautiful! And the finish feels wonderful. I tech for the band Lit and the bass player gets relic basses from the fender custom shop, I believe your quality is WAY better. I would definitely buy another guitar from you. It looks and sounds awesome. My buddy that has a recording studio was super impressed. It is pairing nicely with my Bad Cat Black Cat combo. I finally have my dream rig!
If you ever get another tele, let me know.
Thanks!

This thing is unreal. I’m selling all my other guitars, well except maybe 2 -3 others. For sure on par or surpass the F shop for 3-4x more. Thanks again Bob. If you ever do a relic paisley under vintage cream or light blue let me know.

Thanks amazing looking and sounding guitar ...for the price you can’t beat it , if fender made this relic style it would cost easily $4k-$7k
David A. – Feb 13th, 2020
Thanks for the awesome relic. This guitar plays amazing. Done right for 1/3 of the price of a custom shop Strat. He doesn’t claim them to be custom shop either, but they are just as good if not better. More unique for sure. Artfully done and quality. Was setup ready to play when I opened up the case.
Andrew T. – Feb 6th, 2020

Alex D. – Jan 29th, 2020
Fantastic guitar! Very pleasantly surprised how smooth the relic job feels. Plays and sounds like a dream with the custom shop pickups. I set the guitar up for half-step down tuning with the 9's strings it shipped with and haven't had any tuning or intonation issues whatsoever! Would definitely consider purchasing from Bob again. Thanks!!

American Fender Stratocaster Nitro Faded White Heavy Relic Custom Shop Fat 50's Pickups
Probably one of the best guitar purchases i've ever made. Matches the quality, sound, appearance, and play-ability of a custom shop relic at 1/3 the cost. Couldn't be happier.

This is an absolutely gorgeous guitar. Best relic job I’ve seen. Plays like butter. Thanks!
David C. – Jul 1st, 2019
Superb! This guitar is everything I hoped it would be and then some. A quick preface is that I have a 74' Strat I love, a 2018 Fender custom shop 57' Strat for 4k. This one feels better than the custom.I love the feel of a nice worn in guitar and sometimes when I want to get something new I like the option of having the feel of a beautiful old Strat without the insane price tag.This guitar nailed that! The relic work is amazing! The neck and fretboard are so smooth! Absolutely Love It!
