Relic Finish
FENDER SAYS

The sparkling trio of hand wound '56 single-coil Stratocaster pickups features a hum-cancelling reverse-wound/reverse-polarity middle pickup along with a five-way switch, Vintage Modified wiring and Tone-Saver treble bleed circuit for modern tonal versatility.
Other premium features include a one-piece tinted quartersawn maple neck with a 10/'56 "V"-shaped profile, 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 6105 frets and bone nut, single-ply eggshell pickguard, vintage hardware and more. Includes Custom Shop Limited neck plate, case and certificate of authenticity. Available in Wide Fade Two-Color Sunburst, Faded Foam Green, Faded '55 Desert Tan, Faded Shell Pink and Faded Sonic Blue.
