The Story

1957 Stratocaster Heavy Relic Gold Sparkle over Red Base

This is one show stopper Strat: a used and still in great shape '57 Reissue with a great looking Gold Sparkle relic finish over a red base coat that gives the guitar a cool, almost champagne like appearance to the alder body. Loaded with three Custom Shop '50s Strat pickups for a classic Fender Strat sound, this is a guitar that commands attention both visually and audibly � it plays wonderfully and includes the original case and certificate of authenticity.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity
