The Fender Custom Shop 1956 Heavy Relic Stratocaster is as close to the genuine article as you can get without taking out a second mortgage. And the '56 Heavy Relic gives you the spank, sparkle, and vibe of the original - without costly visits to your luthier. This axe may look a half-century old, but it sports a supremely playable modern 9.5" radius and 6105 frets on its comfortable 10/56 large V-shaped neck. Topped off with superb-sounding Fat 50's pickups and traditional 3-way switch wiring, the Fender Custom Shop 1956 Heavy Relic Stratocaster is a music time machine par excellence
