Completed on 25 June 2021 with Journeyman Relic finishing - a level of aged distressing that sits between the light wear of a Closet Classic and the heavy relicing of a Full Relic, producing a guitar that looks and feels genuinely played-in without being excessively worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe alder body is built to the 60 Strat specification and finished in aged Aztec Gold nitrocellulose lacquer, and delivers the worn, resonant character of a guitar that has spent decades in regular use. Three hand-wound Bone Tone pickups - neck, middle, and bridge - are routed through a Strat 1\/2 blender relay gold control assembly, and the maple rift-sawn neck features a 60 Style oval C profile with 7.25-9.50 compound radius, 21 frets and a dark tint nitrocellulose finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis incredible Strat sounds as good as it looks - it's clear and spanky but with a surprising amount of low end punch, and genuinely has the feel of a vintage guitar. This has instantly become something of a staff favourite and is guaranteed to turn heads! It's playing wonderfully and includes all original case candy, and it's original hardshell case. An incredible vintage reproduction with player-oriented upgrades and jaw-dropping looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAlder body built to the 60 Strat specification with 2-piece sort and nitrocellulose lacquer aged colour finish delivers the resonant, characterful tonal foundation of an early 1960s Stratocaster -
