General

This top-quality Flame Maple Stratocaster is made in Fender's American Custom Shop. With its AAA flamed maple top, this iconic Strat is a real eye-catcher. Subtle details like the dark rosewood fretboard, parchment pickguard and machine heads with mother-of-pearl knobs take this '57-style Stratocaster to the next level. Its lightweight ash body with deep contours give it a comfortable feel. The solid neck has a C profile that fits your hand naturally. This Custom Shop Fender comes complete with a luxury black case and accessories.

Flame Maple Top American Stratocaster: versatile sound

Since the 1950s, Fender has used ash to make many of its models, and this Strat is no exception. This wood is used because of its excellent tone and offers good resonance, long sustain and a creamy sound. With solid bass and fine trebles the Strat has a very versatile character. It is fitted with two hand-wound '69 single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions and a Texas Special in the bridge position. The middle pickup is reverse-wound and has reverse polarity to prevent the typical '60 cycle hum that occurs when the pickup switch is in positions 2 and 4.

American Custom Series

With the American Custom series, Fender's famous Custom Shop brings legendary Stratocasters and Telecasters into the 21st century by combining contemporary characteristics with superior craftsmanship. Woods with striking natural patterns are used to guarantee you a top-quality instrument with a stunning finish. Rosewood or maple fretboards with a compound radius of 9.5 inches in the lower positions and 12 inches in the higher positions ensure comfort when playing. This also makes it easier to play chords low on the neck, while bends higher up the neck are more accessible too. Narrow jumbo frets also help you play fast melodies with a pure tone. Finally, the pristine condition of the New Old Stock's urethane lacquer makes these models as easy on the eyes as they are on the ears.
