The Fender Custom Shop 1956 Stratocaster in White Blonde with Gold Hardware is a dazzling embodiment of vintage elegance and modern precision. This iconic guitar is a feast for the senses, featuring a jaw-dropping white blonde nitrocellulose lacquer finish that allows the grain of the select ash body to shine through. The NOS finish and gold hardware adds a touch of tasteful class, giving it the rightful appearance of a super high end instrument. The gold hardware, including vintage-style synchronized tremolo, tuners, and knobs, exudes a luxurious warmth against the pristine white backdrop. The maple neck, with a soft V-profile, provides a comfortable and authentic feel, complemented by the smooth-playing maple fingerboard adorned with 21 vintage frets.

Underneath the gleaming surface lies the heart of the 1956 Stratocaster, boasting three hand-wound '56 single-coil pickups that capture the magic of the original era. The classic 5-way pickup selector switch allows players to navigate through a spectrum of tones, from the crisp clarity of the bridge pickup to the mellow warmth of the neck pickup. Whether you're diving into soulful blues bends or unleashing a cascade of shimmering chords, the 1956 Stratocaster delivers with finesse. This masterpiece from the Fender Custom Shop not only pays homage to the golden era of Stratocasters but elevates the playing experience with impeccable craftsmanship and a zest for vintage authenticity that's impossible to ignore. It's not just a guitar; it's a time-traveling sonic journey, an instrument that embraces the past while offering limitless possibilities for the modern musician.
