This is a wonderful example of a older Custom Shop that has been played and had some additional play wear to add even more of that \"Relic\" flavor. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom Fender:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1956 was a transitional year for the Strat®, with the introduction of alder bodies rather than ash on Sunburst and custom-color models. In November of that year, a soft \"V\" neck back shape appeared that was sometimes slightly off center- a profile Fender recreated for this version- and the rectangular \"wing\" string tree replaced the disc type. Overall, the 1956 Strat became a highly sought-after classic, and now Fender has given it several updated player-friendly appointments for comfort and improved tonal capabilities.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe two-piece alder body's Relic lacquer finish gives the look and feel of a well-loved guitar that's seen countless stages. The rift-sawn tinted maple neck plays and feels nice with the vintage correct 7.25\"-radius fingerboard and 21 narrow tall frets. The trio of USA Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s single-coil pickups are everything you want in a Strat. Fat '50s wiring creates stronger tone with more transparent bloom, reducing treble loss when rolling back volume- achieved in part by wiring the tone pot to the output of the volume pot. Other features include Closet Classic hardware, five-way switch, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and wing string tree.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes with tweed hardshell case, COA and trem arm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eS\/N: R19018\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight: 7lb 7oz\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Closet Classic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Faded Aged Fiesta Red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody: \u003c\/strong\u003e2-Piece Select Alder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stratocaster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rift Sawn Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\/56 Off Center \"V\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.25\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrets\/Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 Narrow-Tall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eString Nut\/Width: \u003c\/strong\u003eBone - 1.650\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePosition Inlays:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Dot\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTruss-Rod: \u003c\/strong\u003eVintage-Style\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMiddle Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Pickup: \u003c\/strong\u003eCustom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls: \u003c\/strong\u003eMaster Volume, Tone 1.
