The Fender Custom Shop '59 Stratocaster NOS MN shines in its vibrant Fiesta Red finish, an iconic colour that has captivated guitarists for decades. This nitrocellulose lacquer not only enhances the guitar’s visual appeal but also contributes to its tonal characteristics, allowing the wood to resonate more freely. The finish ages gracefully, developing a unique patina over time that adds to the instrument's vintage charm.
Gold hardware not only adds a touch of luxury to this Stratocaster but also complements the Fiesta Red finish with its warm glow. This premium plating extends across the bridge assembly, tuner keys, and even the string guide, offering a striking contrast against the classic white pickguard. Beyond aesthetics, the high-quality hardware ensures reliable performance and tuning stability, making it suitable for both studio recording and live performances.
The neck of the '59 Stratocaster is crafted to mimic the feel of vintage Stratocasters, providing a comfortable and familiar touch for those who appreciate classic designs. This custom neck features a '60s-style oval "C" shape, meticulously finished with a medium tint nitrocellulose lacquer that not only protects the wood but also offers a smooth, playable surface. With its vintage correct dimensions and carefully chosen birdseye maple, the neck is a perfect blend of form and function.
Equipped with Strat Fat 50's pickups, this guitar delivers a sound that is deeply rooted in the '50s era yet versatile enough to handle modern music demands. The pickups, configured with a modern wiring assembly, provide a rich tonal palette that can be shaped for any genre—from sharp and clear highs to deep and warm lows. The 5-way pickup selector and individual tone controls allow for nuanced sound adjustments, ensuring that the Stratocaster can adapt to any player’s style or performance needs.
