Personal Thoughts:
This is a really classy Custom Shop Strat and a spec that feels a little more refined and upscale than the usual vintage-style formula. The hand selected okoume body with AAA flame maple top is a big part of that, because it gives the guitar a more exotic, boutique sort of feel while still keeping it recognisably Fender. The Ebony Trans finish is a great choice too, as it lets the top do all the talking without becoming too flashy. I also like the fact Fender paired that with a maple neck and board, because it keeps the guitar feeling lively and immediate under the fingers. The access heel, medium jumbo frets and modern wiring all make it a more player-friendly Strat as well, so it is not just about looks. A very attractive USA Custom Shop build and one that should appeal to someone wanting a Strat with a slightly higher-end twist.

Condition Report:
Excellent condition. Presents very cleanly overall with only light signs of use.
