The Fender Custom Shop 60th Anniversary 1954 Heavy Relic Stratocaster Solidbody Electric Guitar boasts a tinted, one-piece maple neck – quartersawn for tone and stability. Quartersawn wood is a stronger cut than flatsawn wood. It also transfer the string vibration more directly towards the body, which means more tone and resonance for you! And the lacquer finish, which is thinner than modern polyurethane finishes, will allow the one-piece Ash body on this ’54 Strat to breathe, age properly in time, and sing with a clear, loud voice.
Custom 1954 Stratocaster pickups provide classic single-coil Strat tone
Smooth, Bluesy, Bell-Like and Jangley - ask any seasoned Strat player and you'll get slightly different response of what they like best about the tone of the ’54 Heavy Relic Strat Ltd Ed. Words alone can't capture the sound, but the new Custom Shop 1954 Single-coil Stratocaster pickups Fender designed for the 60th Anniversary 1954 Heavy Relic Stratocaster certainly can. And thanks to a 5-way blade pickup selector you have easy access to those in-between tones early Strat players discovered by accident.
The Heavy Relic Finish package for a Vintage Vibe, Look and Feel
The stunning Heavy Relic treatment starts with a period-correct nitrocellulose lacquer. Nitrocellulose Lacquer finishes are significantly thinner than today's polyurethane finishes. Aside from an authentic vintage look, they also allow the wood to breathe and age naturally over time, which enhances the instrument's tonal qualities. They also look and feel great – less paint equals more tone! And the feel of a worn-in vintage instrument is hard to beat. Without sneaking a look at the neck heel stamps, you'd be hard-pressed to distinguish the Fender Custom Shop 60th Anniversary 1954 Heavy Relic Stratocaster Solidbody Electric Guitar from the real deal.
