The Story

Time Machine 1957 Stratocaster Relic Electric Guitar Vintage White Blonde

Everyone dreams of finding a vintage Strat that's been broken in to perfection over the course of nearly 60 years. This 1957 Relic Stratocaster aims to capture the spirit of those vintage instruments! The White Blonde finish has been tastefully aged for a played-in look and feel. The neck gets the Relic treatment as well, with a comfortable soft "V" shape coupled with a modern style 9.5" radius fingerboard. All of the traditional Strat sounds are here as well, with three Fender Fat '50s single-coils wired to a five-way switch for full-bodied neck pickup sounds, quacky "in-between" tones, and biting treble leads.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Paperwork, Tremolo Arm, Strap, Cable, Setup Tools
