Personal Thoughts:
This is a really cool Custom Shop Strat and a slightly unusual one in all the right ways. The Grafitti Yellow finish gives it loads of personality straight away, and the painted headstock just pushes it a bit further away from the standard vintage reissue route. I also like the way this one has been built to a ’59 Strat concept but with a few more modern-feeling touches in the spec. The flat-lam rosewood board, medium jumbo frets and mixed pickup set should make it a very easy guitar to get on with, while still keeping plenty of proper Strat character. The ’69 neck, Fat 50’s middle and Texas Special bridge is a clever combination too, giving it a bit more range than a standard matched set. A very eye-catching Custom Shop Strat and a nice example of Fender doing something a little different without losing the core appeal.
Condition Report:
Mint condition. NOS finish is factory correct as part of the original Custom Shop spec. Presents exceptionally well overall, with no noteworthy wear to mention.
