Cloaked in a mind-melting Aged Firemist Silver nitrocellulose lacquer, this beauty sports a Journeyman Relic finish that looks exactly like it spent the last fifty-odd years being babied at a clubhouse. At a well balanced 7.6 lbs, its two-piece alder body won't require you to schedule an emergency visit to the chiropractor. The hardware offers just the right amount of "I've seen things" patina without looking like it was dragged behind a tour bus.

Carved into a beefy 1969 "U" profile, this rift-sawn maple neck features a modern 9.50" radius and 21 narrow-tall frets. Complete with the gloriously oversized, unapologetically large head stock. 

Armed with a trio of Handwound '69 Stratocaster pickups, this guitar snaps, crackles, and pops with pure, unadulterated single-coil authority. Control your sonic destiny with a classic 5-way switch that effortlessly transitions from a neck-pickup bluesy cry to a bridge-pickup bite that could cut through a brick wall. Shipped in a Deluxe Hardshell Case alongside a strap and a Certificate of Authenticity, this Strat is a devastatingly cool time machine built for the modern stage.
