Wow! This Fender Custom Shop Limted 1954 Stratocaster embodies everything that makes a strat a timeless classic and one of the greatest models of all time! This Strat has a perfect weight balance, sensitive tremolo, and glassy pickups. Seriously one of the best Custom Shops we have ever experienced!
This guitar arrived at Quimper Sound Guitars used in excellent condition. As a factory-aged Custom Shop instrument, there may be very light signs of play wear consistent with the relic finish, but nothing beyond that. All electronics and hardware function perfectly, and the guitar plays effortlessly throughout the neck. It is an exceptional example of a Custom Shop Stratocaster that delivers classic tone, feel, and aesthetic without compromise. Please review all the specs that where provided by the shop traveller. This was a Wildwood Spec'd guitar and has some unique spec's beyond the 70th Anniversary Limited 54' Strat model, the largest deviation being a compound fretboard radius. The original Custom Shop Case, COA and all accessories included.
The Fender Custom Shop 70th Anniversary 1954 Stratocaster is a meticulously crafted tribute to the earliest days of the Stratocaster, built with period-correct construction and finished with Fender’s understated Custom Shop relic treatment. The off-center two-piece ash body features authentic 1954 contours and routing, finished in a wide-fade two-color sunburst nitrocellulose lacquer that captures the look and feel of a well-preserved original. Vintage-style hardware with chrome and nickel relic treatment and era-accurate plastics complete the visual package.
