Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1954 Hardtail Stratocaster NOS, 1-Piece Quartersawn Maple Neck Fingerboard, Wide Fade 2 Tone Sunburst
~Guitar pictured is the actual guitar that you will receive~
Description
2024 marks the platinum anniversary of the Stratocaster®—that’s seven decades of the world’s greatest electric guitar. To mark this auspicious milestone, the Fender Custom Shop introduces the Limited Edition ’54 Hardtail Stratocaster® Deluxe Closet Classic with Gold Hardware. Its two-piece select ash body (with offset seam on the treble side) produces lively resonance with singing highs, sweet midrange and tight lows, with sparkling gold hardware and wrapped in a gorgeous Deluxe Closet Classic lacquer finish.
Its one-piece quartersawn maple neck is fashioned with a special 70th anniversary Soft “V” profile based on an incredible Strat® neck from July 1954, topped by a vintage compound-radius fingerboard (7.25” to 9.5”) with 21 medium vintage (47095) frets and a 1.625” bone nut. Three Custom Shop hand-wound ’54 Strat® pickups deliver that classic Strat voice with clear, bell-like highs, routed through vintage '54 Strat® wiring with wax paper cap and five-way switching.
All together it spotlights an ultra-rare set of period-correct Stratocaster® appointments, with other premium features including a single-ply white pickguard, vintage-style hardtail bridge, vintage-style tuners, disc string tree, deluxe embroidered hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
The guitar pictured is the actual guitar that you will receive. It comes with Fender's Factory Warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee! It will be professionally set up and ready to play before it leaves our store.
