The Fender Custom Shop 1959 Stratocaster NOS is a masterfully crafted guitar dripping with old-school charm. Coated in a 3 Tone Sunburst finish, adorned with nickel/chrome hardware, and fit with a trio of '59 Stratocaster pickups, this Fender guitar has a gorgeous aesthetic and a phenomenal tone that'll impress even the pickiest musicians.
Starting with a 2-piece select alder body, this Strat projects that iconic Fender tone with pronounced upper mids, excellent sustain, and a sharp attack. Guitarists will love riffing on its plain grain maple neck, courtesy of its comfortable 1959 "D" profile and buttery-smooth AAA rosewood fingerboard. They'll also appreciate its New Old Stock (NOS) finish that gives it the appearance of a perfectly preserved guitar that's never been played.
If spankin' vintage tones are what you're chasing, you'll love the Custom Shop 1959 Stratocaster's '59 Strat pickups. These single-coils deliver glassy highs and warm, rounded lows, allowing them to nail a wide range of classic tones. Whether you're performing rapid-fire funk riffs or blistering rock solos, these pickups have an outstanding sound with tons of depth and dimension.
Built by the master artisans at the Fender Custom Shop, the 1959 Stratocaster NOS is great for discerning guitarists and savvy collectors seeking a first-rate Fender with a timeless look and a vintage sound.
