The pinnacle of Fender Custom Shop's coveted Master Built instruments, this one is the "MBS 1961 Stratocaster Relic Lack Placid Blue Built by Jason Smith." This vibrant and cool LPB, a used 2013 model, features just the right amount of relic detailing. It features a two-piece alder body, quartersawn maple neck, and slab rosewood fingerboard, a 1961 specification. The maple neck is a perfectly straight-grained oval "C" shape, with a subtle, comfortable feel. While the neck is aged with some of the paint still remaining on the back, the fingerboard edges have been carefully chamfered for a very comfortable grip. The fingerboard has a 9.5" radius and medium jumbo frets. The pickguard is made of celluloid mint green guard, and of course, since it's a '61, it has a spaghetti head logo with the 2 patent number. The pickups have been replaced with Fender Custom Shop "FAT'50s" pickups, and the capacitors have been replaced with vintage Sprug 0.1uF Red Dime ceramic capacitors. The tone circuit is wired for the front, middle, and rear. The finish is a beautiful "Lake Placid Blue" that is neither too dark nor too burnt, and has a vibrant, faded look. The weather checking and elegant aging are very good. Jason Smith has the Fender spirit and rock music in his DNA, deeply inherited from his father, Dan Smith, and his mentor, John English. "Smith". It has a tight, clear attack and solid accompanying overtones. It responds well to your touch, ranging from a gentle, sweet tone to a light, sharp edge, and a long, thick sustain, all of which are underpinned by a rock spirit. If you're looking for a Strat with plenty of potential, this is one that's perfect for rocking out. This instrument is in excellent condition, with only slight signs of wear and tear. The neck is in good condition, and more than 85-90% of the frets remain. The easy-to-play action means you'll be able to use it for years to come. This is a vintage model with a classic approach that we recommend to anyone looking for a coveted Masterbuilt, and especially a Strat with guts and performance. It also comes with all the original accessories that came with it when new, including the original hard case, certificate, tremolo arm, bridge cover, back panel and screws, shielded cable, and strap.
