Fender Custom Shop Postmodern NOS Stratocaster HLE Gold
Fenders Postmodern Stratocaster is classic design with the modern appointments that make her a joy to play. A contemporary take on a time-honored classic. A lightweight ash body with a comfortable contoured heel, quartersawn maple neck with a finely sculpted ‘60s C profile, a compound-radius (9.5”-12”) round-laminated maple fingerboard with twenty-one 6105 frets, and three sparkling Fat ‘60s single-coil pickups (reverse-wound/reverse-polarity middle pickup) with modern five-way switching and a special Tone-Saver treble-bleed network that keeps tone consistent at any volume (no loss of highs when decreasing volume).
Premium features include a three-ply parchment pickguard, American Vintage synchronized tremolo bridge, staggered tuning machines, Schaller strap locks and Fender F logo engraved neck plate. NOS lacquer finish. Includes black textured vinyl hard-shell case.
