2020 Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster Partscaster Shell Pink Heavy Relic w/ American Vintage Hot Rod '62 Neck, Case & Hangtags

Up for sale, a 2020 Fender Custom Shop 1960 Stratocaster Partscaster Heavy Relic in near-mint condition, finished in Shell Pink and complete with the original CoA/factory paperwork and a hardshell case. This Stratocaster pairs a fully loaded 2020 Fender Custom Shop body with a flame maple 2007 Fender “Hot Rod” American Vintage ‘62 neck.

Weighing 7lbs 8oz with a two-piece alder body, the pickups are some of the Custom Shop’s most celebrated single coils, Fender’s Hand-Wound 60/63 set, featuring staggered, unbeveled Alnico V magnets, black fiber flatwork and Formvar-coated wire. The bridge pickup has a clear yet deep sound, while the neck pickup delivers a woody cut. The middle position is RWRP, hum-cancelling in positions 2 and 4 on the five-way switch for plenty of spank and scooped percussive cut. This Custom Shop Stratocaster benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with fresh 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
