Overview

A beefed-up model with features that working players love.

Take your playing dreams to the next level with the Custom Shop’s Limited Edition Relic H/S Strat, a killer twist on classic Fender style.

Overwound and tailored for the neck position, a Twisted Tele pickup cranks out hot, high-output Telecaster tone while the overwound EVH bridge pickup maintains articulation, allowing each string to ring out proud and true. The vintage-style six-screw Custom Shop RSD Stratocaster tremolo bridge travels smoothly, while maintaining classic aesthetics.

The rift sawn maple neck sports a 1957 “Soft V”-shaped profile that nestles comfortably in your hand and is ideal for thumb-over playing. The hardware and the Aged White Blonde body both wear the Custom Shop’s famous Relic treatment. Each component is carefully aged to give it the authentic worn-in appearance (and feel) of a guitar that’s experienced decades of loving use on stage. The neck has its own treatment, bearing a Heavy Relic tinted lacquer finish and rolled fingerboard edges, creating a dream feel for the fret hand.

The Limited Edition Relic H/S Strat melds classic Fender aesthetics and feel with modern tone to create a dream guitar that will perform exceptionally in any player’s hands. Includes an engraved Limited Edition neck plate, Certificate of Authenticity and deluxe hardshell case.
