This is a very rare & early special ordered "Custom Shop" Stratocaster w/a set-neck body construction that's perhaps 1 of the earliest ones ever produced. Its groovy Sunburst finish is over an incredible AAAAA flamey Maple top laminated over a pretty back & sides to its body. Its also got a solid Maple 1 piece neck w/a factory set neck design. Its got an ebony fingerboard. This set-neck option never did convince Fender to keep this high line Strat on its special order option sheet for very long & went against most Fender buyers that luv'd its original 4-bolt neck design. It's loaded w/3 potent DiMarzio pickups including 2 single coil & 1 Humbucker making a very fancy Hair Band guitar while sporting a factory std. tremolo system. My friend John Page, who ran the custom shop for years, told me that Fender originally started w/a set-neck Tele design in the late 80's. John stated that when John Suhr joined the custom shop Master Builders in 1994. This is basically an early Master Built Strat w/its CN Custom Shop logo on the back of its headstock. We have rarely seen a Strat as beautiful & this special ordered until the full blown Master Built's were offered. It's exceptional & comes complete w/its original molded hard case.
