Just completed: totally vibed-2017 American Fender Stratocaster Custom Heavy Relic in gorgeous Gold Chartreuse Sparkle. This stunning one-off 7lb 7oz strat is powered by a set of Texas Specials pickups. Our custom finish's are top quality, cutting-edge and proprietary. HVLP Nitro lacquer, pearl pigments, with House of Kolor Kandy Koncentrates for pop. Finally nitro clear top coats complete this stunning custom finish. Lil Daddy Roth and Blakes flake are the essence of 50's-60's cool vintage vibe. This aged golden chartreuse pops under light with plenty of incredible lacquer finish checking. Chartreuse is basically gold with a hint of green patina; Dick Dale played chartreuse strats. This one's a keeper!

Guitarwacky’s Custom Relic finishes surpass most relic fan’s expectations because we spare no expense in quality or time, to get that custom shop look, feel and sound without shelling out $3-7K. Our one-off heavy relic finished guitars set themselves apart from other relics with quality hand rubbed custom nitro neck and body finishes.

The neck is straight with low action and all setup. Guitarwacky aged pick guard completes this incredible guitar. This guard was lightly ambered and complements the finish. Frets crowned and polished and the guitar will arrive freshly setup and ready to play. Adler body. "C" shape neck, 25.5 scale length, 9.5 radius rolled edges on maple fingerboard, with jumbo frets. Fresh setup with Slinky 09.s; she’s ready to go! Saddles, screws and hardware were aged and sealed, so that they will look tomorrow, the way they look today for years to come.

Understanding the significance of quality, Guitarwacky Custom relics are flawlessly detailed by artisans whose love for guitar can only be measured by the level of detail embodied within their relic art. This strat arrives in Fender Tweed hard-shell case pictured, along with tremolo arm.. The case is naturally aged and has orange interior fur. Appears to be an awesome older case with all latches fully functional.

Shipping! No worries here! We loosen string tension then professionally pack using brand new guitar boxes. Don't worry-No packing peanuts.

American Fender Stratocaster Relic Custom Gold Sparkle HSS Texas Specials Lucy F. – Apr 1st, 2021

I have wanted a relic guitar for a while. The prices for most are insane. I saw this one, and I will admit I was skeptical. I don't like gold guitars (I have had a few), but I decided to chance it, and I am glad I did! The attention to detail on this is incredible. The maple fretboard is beautiful. Someone put a lot of work into this, and the price was great. And the gold? In person, it looks AMAZING. Sort of like gold foil. I have named this guitar "GOLDDUST".

This guitar is amazing! The attention to detail on the relic job is incredible, and the finish itself is amazing. The guitar shipped quickly and arrived two days after I ordered it. Right out of the box it was well set up and it played beautifully!

American Fender Stratocaster Custom 2012 Faded Tangerine Sparkle

Stunning! The relic finish is nothing short of perfect. I've had relics from Nash and MJT and this is the most realistic out of them all. The colors and attention to detail are amazing! If you're into standard Fender American Strats but want a relic job that will stand out (in a good way!) this is the place to go. Super fast shipping, will buy from again!                                                                            Peter T. – Aug 12th, 2020

American Fender Custom Telecaster Standard Relic Blue Sparkle 

Just received a beautiful functional piece of art. The pictures don't even tell the whole story. Wait till you see one of these in person! In a dim lit room it looks like a vintage tele with a old school paint job which is a look I love. Once light hits the body the sparkle is revealed in all it's glory! Oh man what a sight! So depending on the angle you get a different visual delight. Bob was quick to respond to my questions and told me I would love it and he was right!         Glenn P. – Aug 4th, 2020

Fender Telecaster American Performer Relic 2019 Lavander Purple Sparkle Duncan Tele Stack

The finish work on this guitar is absolutely outstanding! Truly a unique, well-done refinish and relic. I would wager if I put this next to my CS Tele, many people would have difficulty telling them apart                                                                                        Edward B.-July 11, 2020

Fender Stratocaster Custom Blue Sparkle Custom Nitro Relic

Wow! This is a work of art! I’m incredibly impressed. I finished the neck w/2500 sand block, and will swap out the american standard w/custom shop Abigail Ybarra hand wound set to complete it. But that’s just me being incredibly picky. This is everything advertised and more! Congrats on your craftsmanship! Bravo!                     July 09, 2020 by Sam M.

American Fender Custom Telecaster 2017 Magenta Sparkle Heavy Relic Lindy Fralins

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!                                                                                   Kevin M. – Mar 13th, 2020
