Screaming Yellow Zonker, indeed! This is the second of two 59 Relic Strats we just got from Fender in the always-powerful Graffiti Yellow Heavy Relic finish and it is one of the best Strats in the shop. It is extremely well-balanced tonally and is a touch brighter than all the others. Even though all these Strats spec out the same, the fact that they are made of organic, formerly-living material makes them each different from the others, which is part of the voodoo aspect of guitars. Very often, the way the components come together with the wood will make certain guitars exceed their spec sheets and this guitar is one of those. Buy this, and you will totally turn into Nigel...'I play them and I cherish them...', that is, if you haven't already. Try it out and see what happens.

Wish you had a shot at winning the auction for Clapton’s “Blackie” Strat but didn’t have a million dollars burning a hole in your pocket at the time? Well, my friend, let me tell you a little about this Fender Custom Shop ‘59 Stratocaster Relic in black that just might be calling your name. Now, this isn’t Clapton’s famous guitar - but it surely has the look and vibe. And there’s a lot going on beneath that worn exterior that might just make you forget all about Eric’s favorite axe.
Let’s start with the light sort Ash body that gives this guitar a very gig-friendly weight. Throw in a 7.25" to 12" compound radius “V” Maple neck and you’ll find your bluesy bends and finger vibrato hanging for days. The heavy relic treatment only adds to the feel that this guitar has been played in every back alley blues bar across America since ’59. Soaking up all the beer, sweat, smoke and whiskey its little pores could handle – then spitting it back out with a growl and fire only a real blues guitar could muster. The Fat 50’s pickups only add to the already bluesy, full tone this guitar exhibits acoustically. With a tubular, warm clean tone in the neck position, this pickup turns fat and mean like a bar bouncer when pushed. Position 4 ranges from a subdued Jazzy clean tone to all out ZZ Top raunch, while the middle slot is a perfect blend of light and dark – great for Blues and Southern Rock. Position 2 is all about the quack and the bridge pickup is Country twang to the max. In fact, the bridge sounds like a Country record the minute you pluck a string – but you’re also able to coax some nice Blues solos out of this position with a little overdrive.
If you’re looking for a well worn, comfortable guitar that looks and feels like it has been played through all the back road bars and honky tonks from East to West, then give this one a try. She’s not a hard rocker, but if you’re into Blues-Rock, Jazz or Country she’ll be your new best friend.
Our price includes personalized set up, hardshell case, and free shipping to the continental United States.

Picture yourself in a boat on a river with tangerine trees and marmalade skies. Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly… Sir, are you okay? Sir? There you are – don’t worry, it happens to everyone who checks out this Candy Tangerine Custom Shop Custom Deluxe Strat. The color is mesmerizing, isn’t it? Add in a comfortable '65 “C” neck with light figuring to the maple and you’ve got a subtle beauty that really grows on you.
Blending old-school Strat vibe and styling with features modern players have come to prefer, such as a 9.5" radius, 6105 frets, and a RWRP middle pickup, this is pretty much a perfect Strat - in a non-vintage type of way, of course. The ’69 neck pickup exhibits a round, thick tone, especially when overdriving an amp. Position 4 just screams blues, blues, blues while the ’69 middle pickup will delight Country pickers with its bright, full and snappy sound. Position 2 spews out a thinner, more nasal tone that gets nasty like early Keith Richards when driven. And the Texas Special bridge pickup is very bright and yields a great raunchy tone when goosed. Great for Rock, Blues, Country or Jazz, this guitar offers up a wide sonic range in a cool package. The tones are full, punchy and classic and the neck fills the hand but never seems too big. If you can stop yourself from staring at it long enough to play it, there’s no doubt it’ll find its way into your collection.

Rock and roll graffiti can define a player as well as an era, like the famous inscription in the London subway reading "Clapton is God” spray-painted in ’67 by an admirer on a wall in an Islington Underground station. Graffiti also became associated with the anti-establishment punk rock movement beginning in the 1970s. But you don’t have to be a rock god or an anarchist to make a statement with this Fender Custom Shop Custom Deluxe Stratocaster in Graffiti Yellow – it’ll make a statement for you.
While the bright yellow finish can scream on its own, this baby really sings with excellent sustain and resonance from the mix of Alder body, figured ’65 “C” neck and 6105 frets.
Add in Custom ’69 pickups in the neck and middle with a Texas Special in the bridge and you’re ready to take on anything that stands in your way. The neck and “4” positions dole out a full, mellow clean tone that nails soulful Jazz and Blues with aplomb. Adding a little dirt summons a gritty, warm tone with attitude that’ll keep Blues Rockers satisfied. In the middle you’ll find a nicely clear, jangly sound that’s perfect for chords and clean strumming work. Position 2 and the bridge pickup add in some spank and twang that’s not overly bright but still cuts well, and with a little drive can nail snarling Rock leads.
So no matter what you’re trying to say on stage, this guitar will help you get your message across loud and clear. Isn’t it time you made your own statement?

Most people tend to equate the twangy Telecaster with Country music, but from your first pluck of this Fender Custom Shop Custom Deluxe Stratocaster in Sonic Blue you’ll hear that old school Country tone pour out. That’s not to say the combo of the ’69 pickups in the neck and middle positions with a Texas Special in the bridge can’t handle Blues and Rock, but this one leans toward that Nashville tone. And with its meaty but comfortable ’65 “C” all Maple neck and thicker 6105 frets, pedal steel licks and double stops are no problem. Unplugged, this guitar sounds a little darker than expected with good sustain. And once you flip on the amp you’re greeted with a full, round tone in the neck position with good articulation. Adding in some dirt gives off a fat, thick growl that’ll handle Blues licks with the best of ‘em. Position 4 is very snappy with pronounced mids that can get throaty and mean when pushed. Switching to the middle pickup yields a mellow but bright tone reminiscent of 70’s Rock. Position 2 brings on the Funk with a snappy clean quack while the bridge pickup is pure Country twang all the way. Whatever your style, this guitar will be up for the challenge.
But if you’re a Country fan who is looking for that old school tone with enough bite to handle modern Country Rock, this guitar is right up your alley. And the combination of Sonic Blue finish, all Maple neck and mint green pick guard is amazingly cool. Stop in and try out your best Nashville licks and you’ll see what I mean.

There’s something about a sunburst Strat that gets me every time. Maybe it’s the sheer beauty and richness of the black, red and yellow running together in such a perfect blend. Or maybe it’s because a few of my favorite players wielded a ‘burst while cranking out some of the best songs in Rock and Blues history. Whatever the reason, guitars like this Fender Custom Shop Custom Deluxe Stratocaster in 3-tone Sunburst are a constant reminder of what I love about this instrument.
Pairing an immaculate finish with a beautiful, lightly figured ’65 “C” Maple neck adds class to this already stunning guitar. While the neck feels a bit thicker and meaty, it’s easy to navigate and the 6105 frets are smooth and forgiving – allowing even the most aggressive tone bender to dig in and wail. And the rosewood board adds a little darker flavor to the tone but does not stand in the way of the excellent sustain you’ll hear from each note.
The ’69 pickups in the neck and middle positions range from warm and inviting to clear and sweet on clean settings, but can rage, growl and spit with the right amount of drive behind ‘em. The Texas Special in the bridge is full of twang and bite – perfect for anything from pedal steel Country licks to hard driving Rock. But be careful, this pickup can get out of control quickly with too much distortion – so keep it under control and you’ll be rewarded with tone to spare.
I can’t say enough about the amazing sunburst finish on this guitar. This thing is extra smooth, like glass, and will give you every kind of Strat sound you will ever need. And she weighs in at 8 lbs even, so it should be no strain on the ol' shoulder. Give us a call for more info or to take her home tonight.

Whenever I see a red guitar I’m reminded of “Little Red Riding Hood” – don’t ask me why, I’m just weird like that. But here’s the thing, “Little R” (as I like to call her) was an idiot. I mean, c’mon, could she really not tell her grandmother was the wolf? Granny must’ve been one heinous looking, hairy chick! So where am I going with this … ah yes, I wanted to tell you that, unlike our little fairy tale simpleton, this Candy Apple Red Custom Deluxe Strat packs a lethal combo of beauty, brains and a**-kicking tone that’ll make your ears, eyes and grin as big as that big, bad wolf’s!
Complementing the light weight Ash body with transparent finish is a beautiful large “C” Birdseye Maple neck that plays effortlessly and adds a little tonal heft without getting in the way. Add in a couple modern conveniences like locking tuners for stability and a heel carve for better upper fret access and you’ve got yourself a serious wolf in granny’s clothing.
And when it comes to tone, this one’s a real treat for the ears. Pumping out warm and clear clean tones to growling Rock chunkiness, the Master Design neck pickup will dish out all you can handle. Switch to Position 4 and go from warm, smooth Jazz tones to Texas Blues with ease. In the middle you’ll find a little more mids – perfect for the Blues Rock player, and Position 2 cleans up with serious snap and pop with a nod to 70’s Rock when pushed. For the Country chicken pickers, the bridge pickup is a real basket of goodies while Rockers will enjoy the biting overdriven lead tones you can coax with a cranked amp or pedal.
So here’s a tip - don’t be like Little R. Stay out of the woods (that’s just asking for trouble), don’t talk to strangers (unless, of course, they have candy) and buy this “axe” to take to granny’s house just in case.

Don’t call me “mellow yellow!” This 2011 Fender Custom Shop Custom Deluxe Stratocaster is as sweet as it gets, but don’t think for one second she’s doesn’t have a rebellious side.
The first thing you’ll likely notice is the eye-popping Graffiti Yellow finish covering its alder wood body. Toss in a beautifully figured ’65 “C” neck for a little added heft, a mix of ’69 and Texas Special pickups and 6105 frets and you’ve got a freakin’ rock machine, baby! The thicker neck plays smooth and allows for excellent bending, especially in the upper register, while adding some fatness to the overall tone of the guitar. And speaking of fat, the ’69 neck pickup is full, fat and round with juicy blues-rock on tap when driven. Position 4 cranks up the blues tone to “11” while the ’69 middle pickup spews out that Country twang – DANG! Position 2 quacks like a harmonic duck and loves to get dirty. And the Texas Special bridge pickup cuts thru very well without being overly bright – perfect for Rock leads, especially with a little delay.
This is a very cool axe with a unique look and feel. The thicker neck really adds to the fuller tone and beefier sound of this Strat, and makes the bridge pickup very useable for hard rock. Don’t let the color fool you, this one is a flat out rock machine with tone to match. And as an added bonus, you’ll never lose it on a dark stage!

Fender® Custom Shop 2011 NAMM Show Pine Stratocaster® Pro Ltd Closet Classic in Black

Ever wonder why pine-bodied guitars are always made from 100 year old pine? Are there are no 92 year old or 103 year old stashes of pine out there? Maybe pine is like wine (ha, made a rhyme!) and it reaches its peak at precisely 100 years of age. Or maybe some PhD in wood-ology discovered the xylem and phloem tissues produced by the cambium cells of the common Gymnosperm (species: Pinus) coagulate to the perfect density at the century mark (thank you Wikipedia).
Whatever the reason, the pine forming this Fender® Custom Shop 2011 NAMM Show Pine Stratocaster® Pro LTD Closet Classic looks, sounds and feels superb! The nitro finish on this guitar is very silky and smooth and the pine body adds a noticeable depth and warmth as well as being very resonant. The “C” shaped neck is incredibly comfortable and fast, fast, FAST! To quote myself while playing it, “Wow, this plays like lightning and feels like warm butter!” I’m not sure what that means, but rest assured it’s a good thing.
The neck position sounded warm and smooth, very John Mayer-ish, and fattened up nicely with overdrive. Position 4 was creamy with a nod to Clapton (no pun intended) when pushed. The middle pickup combines warmth with jangle to give a pleasing tone that gets very bluesy when driven. Position 2 offers up a soft quack while the bridge pickup is very bright and to the point. There is an underlying brightness to the middle and bridge pickups that benefit from rolling back the tone knob, but nothing is harsh or ice picky at all. Overall, this is one of my favorite guitars in the store. Excellent tone with great playability, a super fast and comfortable neck and a smokin’ body finish – I just can’t get over how silky it feels! From John Mayer to David Gilmour to Mark Knopfler, this Strat covers it all beautifully. Thank goodness they didn’t use the 99 year old pine, eh?
Our price includes personalized set up, original hardshell case, case candy, certificate of authenticity and free shipping to the continental United States.

Fender® Custom Shop 56 NOS Stratocaster® in Candy Tangerine

You know, some really good guitar players made a name for themselves on a ’56 Strat. Clapton, Stevie Ray … you. That’s right, you! It’s never too late to make a name for yourself, and this Fender® Custom Shop ‘56 NOS Stratocaster® in Candy Tangerine could well be the only thing missing in your journey to the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame! But even if you never get enshrined in the hallowed Hall, you’ll still have a lot of fun dreaming about it with this baby in your hands.
The 10/56 “V” shaped all-Maple neck is a bit meaty but plays with ease, and the 6105 frets allow for huge bends in the midst of your meanest blues licks. A set of locking Sperzel tuners keeps things tight and in tune and makes string changes so much easier – and you know you ain’t playing hard enough if you don’t break at least one string, right?
The ’69 pickups in the neck and middle positions are clear as a bell with enough bite and growl for the meanest Blues solo, but clean up nicely for mellow Jazz chording and runs. A little manipulation of the tone and volume controls can coax a throaty Rock tone out of the 4 Position when you need it, too. The Texas Special pickup in the bridge provides a nice, biting yet crisp clean sound that works great for Country and can get downright nasty when pushed.
So make ‘em all stand up and take notice when you show up with this sweet ’56 throwback. And who knows, your spot in the pantheon of great players may be closer than you think.
