The Story

2016 NAMM Display 1956 Mischief Maker Stratocaster Electric Guitar Olympic White over 3-Tone Sunburst

What’s better than going to NAMM? Going to NAMM and bringing back some amazing pieces from the always amazing Fender Custom Shop display. These guitars are built as one-offs, and are always top-notch when it comes to looks and feel – always with a unique feature or two to make these guitars unlike any other. This is the '56 Mischief Maker, a very cool mash up that isn’t just a Tele neck on a Strat body – it’s got 21 jumbo frets for fast and easy playing, three mixed up handwound Strat pickups with a neck pickup blender to get even more versatility out of your instrument, and a great feeling 10/56 “V” neck shape. To top everything off is a great Olympic White over 3-Tone Sunburst heavy relic finish.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Strap, Cable, Maintenance Kit, Polish Cloth, Paperwork
