Description
Fender's Custom Shop Limited Edition Poblano II Stratocaster takes the tried and true Strat recipe and flips it on its head. With its undeniably-cool aesthetic, chunky neck, and hand-wound Ancho Poblano pickups, this axe is perfect for players and collectors seeking a whole new flavor of Strat.
Featuring an alder body, this Poblano Strat projects that coveted Fender tone with snappy upper mids, plenty of rich sustain, and a sharp attack. This Strat weighs in at a comfy 8 lbs. 1.5 oz., giving it a nice, sturdy feel, and it's exceptionally balanced when seated or standing. Players and collectors alike will love its relic'd Aged Olympic White finish with scars, dings, dents, and wear that give it the look and feel of an authentic, well-gigged guitar. And, with its chunkier 1950 Blackguard "U" shaped maple neck, silky-smooth maple fingerboard, and jumbo frets, this beauty plays like an absolute dream.
The heart and soul of this Custom Shop Poblano Strat is the trio of hand-wound Ancho Poblano single-coils that deliver that classic Strat chime with a little extra 'oomph.' Wired to churn out highly musical tones that get progressively hotter from neck to bridge, these pickups are mean, spankin', and perfect for players who love playing blistering leads and dexterous solo work.
Complete with a deluxe hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity, this Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Poblano II Stratocaster is an excellent choice for players and collectors seeking a unique Strat with some serious personality.
