SOLD - 2002 Fender Custom Shop '56 Closet Classic Stratocaster Sunburst

This stunning Custom Shop model features a comfortably sculpted “V”‑profile maple neck (10/56 vintage‑correct shape), paired with a subtly aged two‑tone sunburst Closet Classic finish that simulates a carefully stored mid‑’50s Strat. Crafted with a two‑piece alder body, it houses three Custom ’50s single‑coil pickups, and comes with a single‑ply pickguard set in a classic ‘56 wiring and tone configuration.

Note from our Luthier Gijs: Very resonant, great sounding Strat. It gets a 9 out of 10 score.
