Fender Custom Shop '63 Stratocaster, Desert Sand, Lush Closet Classic Overview by GAK
This 2 piece Alder Body Strat has been given the Relic treatment, finished in Nitrocellulose lacquer, Desert Sand. The Lush Closet Classic finish give this the look of a cherished instrument that's been taken care of over the years, but has aged nonetheless. The 10/56 soft "V" Shaped Neck has been topped off with a AAA Rosewood fingerboard, with a 9.5" Radius and Medium Jumbo frets, for a more modern feel. The wiring is also modern, with bridge wired to tone and tone saver circuit for keeping that treble as you roll back the volume. Which you'll want to preserve, because those hand wound Fat-60s pickups with the middle reverse wound and reverse polarity, sound AMAZING.
