Description

Beautifully presented in Pewter, are pleased to offer this exemplary Fender Custom Shop ’63 Stratocaster. Elegantly finished off with a Black Anodised pickguard with modern hardware and a NOS finish, this Strat is guaranteed to turn heads at every occasion.

Featuring a trio of Seymour Duncan SSL-3 Hot Strat Pickups, this Strat provides classic Stratocaster tones but turned up to 11 with even more output, boldness and fatness. Its Eastern White Pine body in combination with Roasted Maple neck and African Blackwood fretboard helps to offer a lightweight Strat with even more resonance, attack and overtones. Playing feels effortless thanks to its Modern C-D neck profile with compound fingerboard, and its modern hardware ensures this Strat is stage and studio-ready with pinpoint accuracy and superior stability.

African Blackwood

Part of the Ebony family of woods, this extremely premium tonewood provides unbelievable articulation and clarity as well as a providing a glassy smooth playing experience. It’s a perfect tonal match for the guitar’s resonant and well-balanced Pine body and adds to the instrument’s illustrious array of harmonic sustain and overtones.

Modern C-D Neck Profile

A compound neck profile that starts off as a modern C at the nut and transitions to a D shape towards the heel, creating Fender’s most ergonomic and all-around most comfortable neck design. It provides the player with the most easiest transition to the higher register of the fingerboard while remaining comfortable in the first position for big open extended chord voicings.

Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Their pickup configurations often favour clarity and articulation, making them well suited to clean sounds, edge-of-breakup tones, and expressive lead playing, while still handling heavier styles with the right setup. S style guitars are valued for their responsiveness to touch and dynamics, making them a popular choice for players who want an instrument that feels fluid, familiar, and adaptable across a wide range of music.
