Description
The Fender Custom Shop Postmodern Stratocaster DLX Closet Classic is all about balance. It walks that fine line between classic tone and modern playability, between vintage soul and updated functionality. Finished in Super Faded HLE Gold with a Deluxe Closet Classic treatment, it has all the mojo of a well-loved guitar that's been carefully stored, aging with grace but never abused. This one's built for players who crave the golden-era vibe but demand contemporary feel and reliability.
Its 2-piece select ash body keeps things light and resonant, while the quartersawn rosewood neck delivers a smooth, articulate tone with a naturally broken-in feel. The '60s Oval "C" profile gives your fretting hand a familiar yet refined grip, and the compound 9.5" to 12" fingerboard radius ensures effortless bends and clean chording from nut to heel. Narrow tall 6105 frets offer a precise, modern touch without losing that vintage Strat charm.
Loaded with a trio of Custom Shop Hand-Wound Troposphere pickups, this Strat covers everything from glassy cleans to snappy funk to thick, bluesy leads. The Fat '50s wiring combined with Greasebucket tone circuitry lets you roll back the volume or tone without sacrificing clarity. Whether you're in the studio or on stage, the tonal palette is rich, usable, and unmistakably Strat.
Visually, the Super Faded HLE Gold finish, 3-ply black guard, black knobs, and matching hardware tell a subtle but distinctive story. It's a guitar that catches the eye without shouting. The RSD Strat tremolo with vintage-style saddles provides buttery smooth action and rock-solid stability, paired with vintage-style tuners and a bone nut for tuning reliability and resonance.
At Cream City Music, we love guitars that bring old-school inspiration into the modern world with intention and grace. This Postmodern Stratocaster DLX Closet Classic hits that mark perfectly. It feels lived-in from the first chord, and it's ready to go the distance with you-on stage, in the studio, or wherever your music takes you.
