The Story

1956 Stratocaster Left-Handed Heavy Relic Black over 2-Color Sunburst

Some love for the lefties: this is a Custom Shop '56 Strat with a unique Black over Sunburst finish. It's a fast player with 6150 frets, and loaded up with a special set of Eric Johnson single-coils! A very cool and eye-catching piece that will get you noticed in a crowd (even if you're playing guitar upside down!)

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Case Candy, Paperwork
