Fender Custom Shop 1960 Stratocaster Ash Journeyman Relic RW Wide Fade Chocolate 3-Tone Sunburst "CME Spec"

Description

The benchmark of craftsmanship, the Fender Custom Shop is the apex of what Fender has to offer. Each instrument is hand-crafted by Fender Master Builders from only the finest, premium-grade components. The Custom Shop, known also as "The Dream Factory," produces extremely limited runs of period-correct touchstones from the Fender catalog, as well as special one-offs featuring experimental, ground-up design and appointments. Custom hand-wound and treated pickups, exotic tonewoods, hand-aged hardware, special relicing techniques-only the best of the best goes into what leaves the Fender Custom Shop. Fender's finest expression of quality and art, supreme in all ways. With vintage appointments and a lightly reliced journeyman finish, this Fender CS 1960 Stratocaster Ash Journeyman Relic RW Wide Fade in Chocolate 3-Tone Sunburst with "CME Spec" might look like a loving tribute to the past, but this is packed with modern power. Three Hand Wound Ancho Poblano Strat pickups grow hotter from neck to bridge and are tweaked across for excellent soling potential. They're also specially designed and potted by the folks in the Custom Shop, who curbed the microphonics in each to make the modern guts in this vintage shell shine extra bright.
