Introducing the Fender Custom Shop Willcutt Exclusive True '57 Stratocaster! Carrying on the Willcutt Exclusive legacy, we bring you an incredible instrument that pays tribute to Bob Willcutt's vintage 1957 Stratocaster. We pinpointed its origin to January 1957 based on the hand written 1-57 marking in the tremolo cavity and other characteristics. Fender Custom Shop is introducing this feature (pencil 1-57 in tremolo cavity) in a current production model for the first time!  Features also include a 57 deep contoured body, handwound Willcutt True '57 pickups, and your choice between the original '57 style V shaped neck or a 65 "C".  Available in original 2 color sunburst or white blonde.
