Limited Edition ’61 Strat
Fender’s elite Custom Shop luthiers have recreated the magic of one of the most iconic guitars ever made and added premium materials and appointments to make the vintage Stratocaster of your dreams! Starting with a period accurate 1960 Strat Base Model featuring a 2-Piece Alder body and ’60 Style Oval “C” Roasted Maple neck, we’ve added a 9mm AAA Rosewood Fingerboard sorted for dark wood and sporting 21 narrow tall frets and vintage clay facedots. The 3 Handwound Single Coil Fat 60s Pickups deliver that classic Strat sound of glistening highs and warm punchy lows with an enhanced bass response and are controlled with the Custom Shop vintage modified Strat wiring #2 featuring Tone-Saver Bleed on the Master Volume. The look is sharp and classic with Nitrocellulose Lacquer covering a Heavy Relic Aged Vintage White over 3-Tone Sunburst finish and completed with stunning details such as reliced vintage chrome hardware, a 4-ply 60 Strat G/B/G Tortoise Shell pickguard, Parchment back plate, and upgraded vintage 60’s relic trem arm with vintage white relic switch tip. A leather strap, Book-bound COA, and Vintage-Style G&G Brown/Orange Plush Interior Hard Shell Case are included. Full specs are included in Shop Floor Traveler in pics. Actual Weight: 7lbs 15.8ozs
Custom Shop Limited Edition Series
Each Custom Shop Limited Edition instrument is only available for a short time, which makes it eminently collectible and adds to its investment value. Crafted with many features reserved only for certain artists and master-built instruments, they are just what the name says they are: highly anticipated limited-edition models that go very quickly.
Custom Shop Heavy Relic Aging Style
The heaviest of the relic treatments, designed to evoke decades of the most punishing play and touring.
From serious dinged and wear to intensely discolored hardware and finish, the true battle-hardened workhorse.
