2025 Fender Custom Shop Vintage Custom '59 Hardtail Strat Time Capsule Package in Chocolate 3-Color Sunburst
This guitar is in “new” condition. Taken from box to test and photograph. Includes original Fender Custom Shop hardshell case, Certificate of Authenticity, Shop Floor Traveller and all case candy. Will be shipped in original Fender shipping box.
This guitar is extremely light (6lbs 13oz) and VERY resonant!
1959 saw the advent of several important feature changes to the Stratocaster including a slab rosewood fingerboard with clay position dots, a three-ply mint green pickguard with 8, 9 or 10 screws depending on the month it was built, and a metal spacer added to the string tree.
This hardtail version would have been on the rare side, which ups the collectability and cool factors. This guitar features a hand-selected two-piece alder body, Flash coat lacquer (no buff), a rift-sawn maple neck with a 1959 "D" profile, a vintage compound-radius (7.25" - 9.5") rosewood fingerboard and 21 medium vintage frets.
Hand-wound 1959 Strat pickups are wired to a vintage '59 control assembly and five-way switch. Other features include Closet Classic hardware, three-ply eight-hole mint green pickguard, vintage-style hardtail bridge with patent pending saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut and wing string tree with metal spacer.
