This is the kind of piece the road guys ask about when they think nobody's listening.

 

This Fender Custom Shop 40th Anniversary "Diamond Dealer" Stratocaster from 1994 is a striking collector's piece, number 006 of just 150 produced. For the Fender lifer that reads specs like bedtime stories, this limited-edition guitar boasts a lightweight ash body with a stunning 2-tone sunburst finish, complemented by a flamed maple top.

 

Its figured maple neck, featuring a soft "V" profile and abalone dot inlays, is adorned with exclusive 40th Anniversary markings. The case opens, the room falls silent, and somewhere a Squier gently weeps. 

 

The guitar is fitted with gold-plated vintage-style hardware, a hand-engraved 22k gold-plated pickguard, and authentic' 50s-style single-coil pickups with gold pole pieces—all factory specifications. 

 

Coming with original Custom Shop appointments, this instrument stands out as an exceptionally clean, collector-grade example that embodies craftsmanship and heritage. 

 

This is a USED instrument in EXCELLENT condition, with some small spots where the gold is coming off the pickguard.

As always, this guitar has been meticulously and professionally set up by our skilled luthiers at The Upper Bout.
