When paired with its 1-piece rift-sawn maple neck and fingerboard combination, the fluid feel of the ’59 Stratocaster only enhances, thanks in part to its 1963 Strat “C” neck carve and more modern 9.5-inch radius that falls into the hand with extraordinarily comfortable and old-school-inspired command. Appointed with 21 medium-jumbo frets and a real bone nut, players will bask in a truly transportive responsiveness that’s laden with articulate sensitivity and effortless freedom of movement.Hand-wound Fat ‘50s character This ’59 Stratocaster comes sonically treated to showcase greater low-end presence and a to-die-for late-‘50s tonal disposition courtesy of its hand-wound Fat ‘50s pickup set. Designed with premier components like Formvar magnet wire, a period-correct cloth wire and fiber bobbin, and Alnico V magnets with staggered and hand-beveled pole pieces, these single-coils exude the ultimate dedication to the Strat’s bygone sonic beauty. Capped by its hum-canceling reverse-winding at the middle position, the smooth, fat, and defined song of these pickups unlocks doors to a multitude of musical avenues, from surf and rockabilly to gut-busting blues.Appointed for dependable play The Fender Custom Shop is the A-team of historic charm meeting modern playability, and nowhere is this truth more evident than within the ’59 Stratocaster’s hardware selection. At the headstock, this 6-string struts a set of vintage-style tuning machines engineered for precision adjustability and unwavering dependability. Down at the body, a similar story is told by the 6-saddle, vintage-style synchronized tremolo, which sports proper bent steel saddles.
