Fender Custom Shop 1961 Stratocaster Heavy Relic in Aged Vintage White over 3-tone Sunburst

Painted Twice

This instrument caused everyone in the showroom to gasp at her beauty the moment the case opened. There is nothing short of brilliance in the fit and finish work of this one of a kind Stratocaster. 
Hand built for the friends of Casino we have an amazing example of the best of 1961. Fender's Golden Age is in full force here and the craftsman left nothing on the table for this guitar.

Built from hand-selected alder and outfitted with a classic 1906 Oval "C" carve this piece is nothing short of a dream to hold and play. We absolutely love the way the Hand wound Texas Special pickups bark and growl from within her as well. From the smooth tones of Little QWing and Lenny to the searing tones of Texas Flood and Scuttle Buttin' this instrument really does it all. If you are looking for a blues machine that can sing, then look no further.

Finished with an ultra thin coat of nitro over the classic Aged vintage white over 3-tone sunburst, this piece really does sing out and allow for the electronics to do their job. We would be remiss by not mention again how absolutely perfect this piece looks as well! And don't forget the clay dots...never forget the clay dots!
