The Story

1961 Stratocaster Super Heavy Relic Aged Natural

Roasted woods, a Super Heavy Relic treatment, Custom Shop Handwound pickups and huge frets? This Strat ticks off ALL of The Music Zoo's boxes. It's a Custom Shop '61 Strat with an Aged Natural finish over a roasted ash body, combined with a roasted quartersawn maple neck and dark-colored flat lam rosewood board. The wiring on this one is super helpful and versatile with a 1/2 Blend that is a master tone in the middle control and the furthest knob acts as a blend control to add in the neck pickup as you dial it back from 10. Strats that are this cool don't last long - act fast!

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