Description
Fender 1960 Stratocaster Heavy Relic - Faded Aged 3-Color Sunburst
If this guitar could talk, it would have some wild stories to tell. The Fender Custom Shop 1960 Stratocaster Heavy Relic is a tribute to the road warriors of the golden era. Featuring a two-piece select alder body, this guitar delivers the balanced, resonant tone that has been the backbone of rock and blues for decades. The Heavy Relic lacquer finish isn't just for show; it mimics the battle scars of a guitar that has spent sixty years in smoky clubs and on bumpy tour buses, giving you that broken-in feel right out of the case.
The heart of this beast lies in its trio of hand-wound Texas Special pickups. These aren't your average single-coils; they are overwound for a "chirpy" midrange, crystalline highs, and a tight low end that can punch through any mix. Whether you’re channeling the soulful "Voodoo" of Jimi Hendrix or the fiery Texas blues of Stevie Ray Vaughan—both legendary proponents of the early '60s Strat soul—this guitar provides the output and attitude to get you there.
Comfort is king with the quartersawn maple neck, carved into a 1960-style Oval “C” profile that feels substantial yet fast. The flat-lam rosewood fingerboard adds a touch of warmth and smoothness to your playing, while the jumbo frets make those big blues bends effortless. With a Tone-Saver bleed circuit to keep your high-end intact even at lower volumes, this Strat is a precision tool dressed in a rugged, vintage aesthetic.
