Description
Fender 1960 Stratocaster Heavy Relic - Aged Sonic Blue Over 3-Color Sunburst
If this guitar could talk, it would probably have a gravelly voice and a thousand stories from the road. This 1960 Stratocaster Heavy Relic is a masterclass in Custom Shop artistry, featuring a "color-over-color" finish that looks like it spent decades in smoke-filled bars and on the backs of bumpy tour buses. The two-piece select alder body provides that quintessential snappy resonance, while the Aged Sonic Blue peeling away to reveal 3-Color Sunburst gives it a rugged, soulful character that you just can't faked.
Under the hood, this beast is loaded with hand-wound Texas Special pickups. These aren't your standard single-coils; they are overwound for a mid-range chirp and tight lows that would make Stevie Ray Vaughan proud. Whether you’re looking for the bite of a Texas blues legend or the smooth, rolled-off warmth of a studio session pro, the Vintage Modified #2 wiring and Tone-Saver bleed circuit ensure your tone stays crystal clear even when you roll the volume back.
The playability is pure vintage luxury. The quartersawn maple neck is carved into a comfortable '60-style Oval "C" and paired with a flat-lam rosewood fingerboard. It’s a nod to the golden era of Fender design, used by everyone from George Harrison to Rory Gallagher. With jumbo frets and a 9.5" radius, you get the classic look with a modern feel that allows for big bends without the "choke out." This isn't just a guitar; it's a piece of history that’s ready to be played hard.
