Fender Custom Shop | Classic Player Stratocaster

Fender Custom Shop | Classic Player Stratocaster

Looking for Custom Shop quality, timeless looks and tone plus modern feel? The Custom Shop Classic Player Strat could be for you!

 

A modern take on the tried and true Stratocaster!

Fender now calls this model the Custom Classic but many of the specs are the same. Ash body for good tone. The 25.5 inch scale one piece birdseye maple neck features a 9.5 radius maple fingerboard with medium jumbo frets and abalone dot inlays.

 

A trio of Vintage Noiseless pickups dish out great tones. The bridge is a unique affair and features a modern 2 point style baseplate but with vintage style saddles and a milled solid steel block with 5 springs loaded at the back.

 

Locking tuners keep everything rock solid. The body is finished in a gorgeous 50s style 2 tone nitro sunburst lacquer. A traditional look with the ionised pickguard giving it a hint of modern. If Custom Shop quality is what you crave this may be your guitar!

 

If you are tired of wimpy frets, this would make a great choice. The flatter radius and medium jumbo frets make bending a breeze. The Vintage Noiseless pickups work and sound great as do the electronics. This is a nice clean guitar too. It shows light playwear, pick and minor scratches. Very nice overall condition. Comes in original hardshell case with the certificate signed by Mike Eldred, custom shop manager at the time.

 

This is an incredible performer for the gigging guitarist. All of the feel and playability of a modern Fender with the looks and tone of a vintage one. A great value for the quality of materials and overall vibe. 

 

FENDER SAYS
Often players take their main guitar, you know... the one that just feels right, and add subtle upgrades to it to accentuate the positive. The Fender Custom Shop Classic Player Strat does just that —  taking a good thing and making it better. Features include alder or ash body, maple neck with choice of "V" or "C" shape, Sperzel Trim-lok machine heads, Custom Shop “Vintage-Noiseless” pickups and 2-point vintage tremolo. Black Tolex Fender case included. The Classic Player is also available in custom colors, see the price list for details.
