This Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Stratocaster has been given the Closet Classic treatment-the look of a guitar made in 1966, played a little, then put away in a closet until now. It has a few dings, a mildly checked finish, lightly oxidized hardware, aged plastic parts, and it plays with a broken-in feel. Produced in a limited run of 200 by a team of skilled luthiers in Fender's Custom Shop, it's true to the specs and style features of the 1966 including the large headstock and C-shaped neck profile, and it features a silvery nitrocellulose lacquer finish and a 3-ply parchment pickguard.

It has 3 1965 Custom single-coil pickups with the middle pickup reverse wound to cancel hum in switch positions 2 and 4. Other features include Fender/Gotoh vintage-style tuners, the wing string tree, and an American Vintage synchronized tremolo.

. Its Custom Shop crafting, Closet Classic treatment, and its firemist finish make it a special Strat among Strats. Includes a black deluxe Fender case, strap, cable, and a Limited Edition Certificate.
