The Story

1956 Stratocaster Roasted Pine Body Heavy Relic Natural

This is a Zoo-Spec'd Fender Custom Shop โ€˜56 Stratocaster with a heavy relic natural finish and a roasted pine body! The pine body makes the guitar super lightweight, as well as resonant. If you're a fan of chunky "V" neck profiles, this guitar will fit right into your hands. The pickups are a set of Handwound '50s Strat single-coils with a reverse wound/reverse polarity middle pickup for hum-cancelling in the 2 and 4 positions!

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