Stratocaster 55 Relic Black #R33876

2007 Custom Shop Stratocaster Relic in Black. Built for the Abbey Road Custom Shop Showcase in 2008. The guitars Fender build for shows always seem to be a bit special.. This is a very realistic Relic with some great lacquer checking and looks very convincing. The 10/56 V neck feels lovely and smooth with our favorite of the 50's profiles. The pickups sound great too, again, very '50's' and they suit the guitar well. In good condition. Has recently been Plek'ed and set up by Charlie Chandler so plays particularly well. With original Tweed case, Cert and Abby Road Show Pass.
