2019 Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster '59


This is a Left handed guitar. 

Based on 1959 Model . 

Rosewood fingerboard. See spec sheet photo for full details . 

In Olympic White finish with custom shop Heavy Relic

Currently fitted with reliced tortoiseshell scratchplate. Just a personal preference. Original mint green one included in the case if you wish to switch back. Many photos of both configurations included .

Original Custom Shop case in mint condition with all case candy including certificate, spec sheet etc. 


Pick up from near Brighton. Reluctantly I've decided that I’m not offering delivery myself due to insurance cost , but you’re absolutely welcome to arrange your own courier/insurance if so wish - I will pack it carefully for transport in that case and let you know the parcel weight / dimensions. 


The following is the excellent description from the original owner who sold it to me, which I can't better:- 


 "Bought brand new from GuitarGuitar. It’s only been used at home (smoke and pet free). These new are £4-5K. comes with all case candy. This is an amazing Stratocaster and the best custom shop strat I have played. I am only selling it because I have a real pre cbs and cannot afford to keep both.

It is high spec as you will see from the spec sheet. great weight with perfect balance at 7.4 lbs. The pickups are the best i've heard after my genuine 1963 strat. Tone and volume controls have a nice and even taper. I most often find the bridge pickup to sound shrill and thin but not on this strat. The hand wound picks ups sound beautiful. This strat has a bell like vintage tone and can also do the rock sound. Modern playability with 9.5 radius, clay dots, deep and fluid contouring round up this beauty. It is truly a magnificent strat in the best and most sought after’d colour Olympic White. The heavy relic is tastefully done unlike the ones I’ve seen recently which don’t look authentic and have the same over the top relic job."
