USA FENDER CUSTOM SHOP VINTAGE CUSTOM 1962 STRATOCASTER®
A recreation of a special 1962 Strat, the Vintage Custom ’62
Stratocaster is for players and collectors who want a rare example of a
rarity—we know, it gets meta. The two-piece body is crafted from alder selected
for weight and grain, and sports a NOS flash coat lacquer finish, along with
Closet Classic metal parts; a complete Time Capsule package. The real magic of
this guitar is in the neck and fingerboard; the ultra-stable, tinted riftsawn
maple neck has a "Câ€-profile that’s ideal for thumb-over, or any other playing
style. The flat-lam 7.25â€-9.5â€-radius maple fingerboard is based on ultra-rare
examples we found from that era and flattens out as you head for the upper registers,
making it easy to bend without fretting out. 21 medium-vintage frets complete
the neck, adding even more vintage-style feel and performance to this stunning
guitar.
Other features include three Hand-Wound ‘62/’63 Strat®
single-coil pickups, 5-way switch, vintage-style wiring, 3-ply Parchment
pickguard, American Vintage synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuning
machines, bone nut and wing string tree with metal spacer. Includes deluxe
hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
