Fender Custom Shop / '68 RI Stratocaster Relic ** ON HOLD ** / 2007 / Red Sparkle / Guitar
|
As you all may know, we're not big fans of just listing specs and then blandly moving on. Rather, we like to add a little "spice" to our descriptions in the hoped that they will evoke a feeling or memory. Such is the case with this stanky, funky, spanky red sparkle '68 reissue Strat. It reminds me of a certain guitarist that played on the Atlanta scene back in the late 80's. He had a red sparkle Strat that just killed and I also remember that he was quite the player. You know, that old, Ohio Players kind of thang. Well this particular instrument seems to have some peculiarities, so I thought it best to lay them out for the future owner. Here she goes:
Limited Edition Red Sparkle color
3- Custom, '69 Single Coil, Grey Bobbin Strat Pickups
Custom Reverse- Wound, Reverse Polarity Middle Pickup
Lightweight Premium Ash Body
Quarter Sawn, '68 Shaped Maple Neck with 9.5" Radius

6105 Frets
Large 60's Headstock

There you have it- all the goodies and a really cool color to boot. You can also bet your last cat in the hat that you gotta have some funk in your soul if you want to make this girl talk, so let's all step up to the mike and let your fingers do the talkin'...
