Fender Custom Shop Vintage Custom '57 Stratocaster Complete with accessories An exquisite one-piece ash body & soft V-shape quarter-sawn one-piece maple neck, aged white blonde color with gold hardware, the so-called "Mary Kaye" style. A very beautiful Strat, also known as the most beautiful Strat, with an air of elegance. This instrument is a superior individual selected after comparing and considering multiple stores (the higher-end models tend to have greater individual differences). The pickups are hand-wound '57 Strat. The fingerboard has a 7.25" to 9.5" compound radius, combining vintage feel with modern playability. The body & neck finish is an extremely thin flash coat lacquer finish, with a semi-matte texture without buffing. The metal parts have a semi-relic look for Closet Classic, and combined with the aforementioned extremely thin paint, it creates an exquisite vintage feel, resulting in a truly attractive appearance and texture. However, please be aware that due to this construction, minor wiping scratches, hairline scratches, unevenness of the wood, and cloudiness are also specifications from the time of shipment. There are also slight grip marks(?) on the back of the neck (I have never touched it with dirty hands. Please consider this an inevitable phenomenon due to this paint), but neither is noticeable during normal use. At the time of purchase, the strings were set up with D'Addario flatwound 012-052, which are expensive in recent years, in the style of the 1950s (although the actual '50s used 013-056). It has a powerful and rich beautiful sound, and is gentle on the frets. The above specifications naturally greatly affect the sound, and you can experience the feeling of the wood resonating and the vividness of each note biting into you. In addition, this instrument is lightweight at approximately 3.39kg, so you can feel the fine airiness produced by the exquisite wood even more, and you will also keenly feel the difference in quality compared to American Vintage models. The list price of this model, which has a small production run, is 689,700 yen including tax. This instrument is in a condition close to a store display item, with the vinyl sheets on the pickguard etc. still attached as when it was purchased. I sincerely look forward to hearing from someone who understands this description and will cherish this valuable instrument.
