Fender Custom Shop Vintage Custom Stratocaster NOS 2019 - Chocolate 3TSB

Purchased in 2019 from the Music Zoo and well-loved and taken care of. It is a perfect weight at around 7.5 lbs and is resonant and punchy. The pickups on this are handwound 59s and sound killer. It has the flash coat nitro lacquer, which is very thin. As you can see, it ages a bit more quickly than the normal nitro non-FCL finish. The guitar has little finish chips and a few light finish dings, with a little discoloration from the natural aging where my thumb would lay over the back/top of the neck at first position. The fingerboard is a beautiful dark rosewood with medium-vintage frets in good shape. The back of the neck is silky smooth and fast. I upgraded the pickguard on this with a Spitfire NOS Time Machine Vintage Mint. It looks WAY better than the stock Fender plastic mint green, but I will of course include the original as well. It comes with all paperwork and a Fender CS leather strap. The brown hard shell case is in great shape and has a little scuff on the outside, with a beautiful plush gold interior. Photos have the back cover off (my preference for easy adjustments) but the back plate is of course is included as well with the trem cover and everything else that came with the guitar new. It hurts to let this one go, but I know whoever grabs it will get an amazing Strat. Please let me know if you have any questions.
