Description
Discover a new realm of vintage-inspired style with the Fender Custom Shop Super Heavy Relic Stratocaster-a guitar that seamlessly blends the classic look and feel of the early Strat era with modern reliability. Cloaked in a 3-Color Sunburst nitro lacquer finish and meticulously sorted for lightweight alder, this instrument boasts an authentically worn aesthetic from top to bottom, inviting you to unleash everything from old-school riffs to contemporary leads. Roasted quarter-sawn maple provides a rock-solid foundation for the large "C" neck, while its rosewood fingerboard, 9.5" radius, and jumbo frets ensure effortless chording and fluid bends across every register.
Designed with practical performance in mind, this Strat sports Custom Shop Texas Special pickups in each position, yielding expressive, punchy tones that can range from bluesy warmth to sparkling highs. The 5-way lever switch and "1/2 Blender" control assembly grant you unlimited versatility for shaping your sound, whether you crave glassy cleans or midrange punch. Rounding out the vintage vibe is a relic'd Fender logo on the headstock, a set of vintage-style tuners with the classic script, and a super heavy relic treatment on the body and hardware-so you can dive into your music with the confidence that this guitar's stage-worn looks and sturdy construction are ready for countless shows and recording sessions.
