Its hollow roasted ash body has an NOS lacquer finish, with a spalted maple top that imparts an elegant aesthetic and tremendous sustain.  You'll notice how beautiful it is right off the bat, as well as the fact that it's a semi-hollow Stratocaster, which in itself makes it a rare bird.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe roasted AAAA birdseye maple neck really stands out - we haven't seen many necks as stunning as this one.  It's not just about the look, it's also a great feeling neck.  It has a comfortable 1960-style “oval C” profile, topped by a Macassar ebony fingerboard with a compound radius (9.5”-12”) and 21 narrow tall frets for ultimate comfort and playability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guitar features Handwound Fat 60's Strat pickups.  They provide mellow vintage tones but with enough bite to cut through the mix with crisp articulation, and are over-wound for a hefty low-end punch.  Alnico 2 magnets, Formvar magnet wire, period-correct cloth wire, and a fiber bobbin keep it accurate to what you would expect in a vintage Strat, with a warm, sweet output.  The reverse-wound, reverse-polarity middle pickup eliminates hum for whisper-quiet performance.   In addition, Strat 1\/2 Blender wiring (blends in the neck pickup in switch positions 1 and 2 for extra tonal options) increases the versatility of this guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tortoiseshell pickguard fits the vibe perfectly.  Additional highlights include Custom Shop vintage style synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines with Fender logo, bone nut, and “wing” string tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Custom Shop Artisan Thinline Stratocaster is a unique build that will stand out wherever it goes.  Thankfully, the previous owner took great care of it from the day he got it here at Truetone.  It's in excellent condition, comes with the orginal hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity, and has been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop.  Also, it's a light one, coming in at just 6.7 lbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're looking for a special guitar, you've found it.  We have a feeling this won't last long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Serial #
