It certainly doesn't happen often, but when masterbuilder Dale Wilson goes down the “noble route”, he does it right! That is also the case with this Custom Stratocaster NOS from 2015. The ash body with an AAA quilted top makes for an extremely elegant appearance. A color-contrasting quilted maple pickguard and a beautiful AAA birdseye mapleneck add the finishing touches. The golden hardware is a perfect match and even the unusual pot iknobs are a feast for the eyes. Those who like to indulge in higher realms, not only visually but also sonically, will really land in seventh Strat heaven here. Three “Handwound 50's” singlecoils from Abigail Ybarra are installed, which provide the perfectly brilliant, clear sound with lots of twang on the amp. On the one hand the Strat is blessed with the typical Mapleneck attack and percussiveness, but on the other hand it has enough warmth and substance for cool crunch and even heavily distorted sounds. From super-clean to dirty-bluesy the guitar covers everything and always brings its own 50s character to the table. The 10/56 V profile of the neck has a nice grip and thanks to a modern 7.25“ - 10” compound radius and the proven 6105 frets the playability leaves nothing to be desired. This means that the future owner not only gets a super-noble “looker”, but also a well thought-out and coherent overall package with top playability and the very best 50s sound. You don't just want to look at this exclusive Stratocaster, which we can offer you in absolute collector's condition, you want to play and listen to this dream guitar!
