The Fender Custom Shop Limited 1960 Roasted Stratocaster Heavy Relic in Aged Black pairs period-correct appointments with road-worn cosmetics and modern stability. It has a roasted maple neck carved to a 1960-style Oval "C" profile, capped with an AAA rosewood fingerboard for a warm, slightly glassy feel; roasting the neck increases dimensional stability and adds a darker, vintage look. The body is finished in Heavy Relic Aged Black, with deliberate checking, wear and hardware aging performed by Custom Shop artisans to simulate decades of play.
Electronics are handwired with Poblano Stratocaster pickups, voiced for vintage Strat clarity with enhanced harmonic richness, and fitted with handwired controls for improved grounding and tonal integrity. This Limited 1960 Roasted Stratocaster is built to feel and sound like a well-played instrument while offering the playability and reliability expected from Fender Custom Shop instruments.
