For your consideration is this beautiful 1993 Fender Custom Shop ’54 Mary Kaye Stratocaster, a timeless recreation of one of Fender’s most iconic and elegant designs. Finished in the classic Mary Kaye style, this guitar delivers the unmistakable vintage Strat look paired with the craftsmanship the early Custom Shop era is known for.
Overall, the instrument is in Very Good condition, showing only moderate to light cosmetic play wear consistent with careful use over the years. The guitar has clearly been well maintained, with no structural issues and a clean presentation throughout. Any signs of use are purely superficial and do not detract from the instrument’s appearance or performance.
Tonally, this Stratocaster is everything you’d hope for from a ’54-style build. The factory pickups sound outstanding, offering a warm, articulate, and authentically vintage voice. Expect classic Strat chime, clarity, and sweetness, with smooth highs and a rich, musical response that works beautifully for everything from clean passages to driven tones.
Playability is excellent. The neck feels comfortable and inviting, and the guitar plays effortlessly with low action. Notably, there is no fret wear, making this a superb choice for players seeking a vintage-style Strat that performs like a much newer instrument.
This is a fantastic opportunity to own an early ’90s Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster that combines vintage aesthetics, inspiring tone, and exceptional playability. Whether you’re a collector, working musician, or Strat enthusiast, this guitar is a truly rewarding piece.
Comes with the original hard case, COA, and trem bar. (147)

Condition, Shipping, & Setup Details:
I specialize in selling pre-owned guitars, which typically show signs of regular use. My commitment to quality is unwavering, and I ensure that any guitar I offer for sale is free from problems, unless explicitly mentioned. With a history of selling guitars dating back to the 1980s, I pride myself on selecting only the finest instruments.
It's important to understand that our shipping fees encompass more than just the cost of the box. I guarantee professional packaging using UPS-approved materials to safeguard your purchase. This typically includes new, heavy-duty boxes rated at 275lbs, 3-inch wide brown fiberglass reinforced tape, ensuring the guitar is well-protected. Additionally, every guitar shipped is fully insured for its sale price.
The guitars are set up according to my personal preferences (Medium Height), and I strictly avoid guitars with neck issues. However, guitar setup is highly subjective, and it is advisable to have it adjusted by a trusted local technician who understands your specific playstyle and preferences.
