Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1954 Hardtail Stratocaster Heavy Relic (Aged Black)

To celebrate 70 years of the Stratocaster—the platinum anniversary of the world’s greatest electric guitar—the Backroom Custom Shop introduces the Limited Edition 1954 Stratocaster Heavy Relic. Its two-piece select ash body (with offset seam on the treble side) resonates with singing highs, sweet midrange, and tight lows, and wears a gorgeous Heavy Relic lacquer finish in Aged Black color.

Its one-piece quartersawn maple neck is fashioned with a special Soft “V” profile based on an incredible Strat neck from July 1954. This is topped with vintage compound-radius fingerboard (7.25” to 9.5”) with 21 medium vintage (47095) frets and a 1.625” bone nut. Three Custom Shop hand-wound ’54 Strat pickups deliver that classic Strat voice with clear, bell-like highs, routed through vintage '54 Strat® wiring with wax paper cap and five-way switching.

Other premium features and authentic first-year Strat appointments include a single-ply white pickguard and serial-number back plate, 1954-style ABS white pickup covers and control knobs, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuners, disc string tree, special 70th Anniversary Stratocaster neck plate, deluxe embroidered hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
