Fender Custom Shop 1960 Stratocaster Lush Closet Classic

Description

Unusual to come accross one of these Lush Closet Classic Custom Shop Fenders. This example is a superb 1960 Stratocaster in lake placid blue with a lovely tort guard on. The finish is effectively a very light Relic with beatiful checking to the finish and some very light wear here and there. The spec of the guitar is very typical for a 1960 Custom Shop Strat. A 9.5 inch radius, a very comfy 60s C neck. I particularly like the very dense dark AAA rosewood on the fret board, it’s 9mm thick and looks superb. As with most of the Fender CS guitard from recet years this plays and sounds brilliantly. We’ve had it fully set up, frets dressed and polished and it’s at it’s optimum in terms of sound and playability now. A gorgeous guitar that looks seriously tasty in this colour.
