Description: Description 2023 Spring Event Limited 1968 Pink Paisley Stratocaster Relic (Aged Pink Paisley Front & Back) [SN.CZ580683] Fender Custom Shop A Pink Paisley 68 Stratocaster with a large head and modern/with synchro logo, exhibited at a Fender Custom Shop event in spring 2023! This is a guitar made based on a 1968 Stratocaster with a maple fingerboard and neck! A 1969-shaped alder body carefully selected by wood selection specialists exclusively for the custom shop, and the pickguard is a 3-ply parchment guard with 11 points and Pink Paisley paper attached to it. The neck material, which is carefully selected like the body, is rift-sawn maple, the fingerboard material is round-laminated maple, the fingerboard radius is a slightly flat 9.5R, and the frets are tall and narrow/tall. The body finish is a relic finish on a poly-based lacquer top coat, and although it has irregular weather checks and damage such as dents here and there, it has a texture that gives it the durability unique to poly coating. The neck is finished with a burnt urethane paint, and the head top is finished with a lacquer finish with a darker burnt color. There are fine weather checks that can be seen when held up to the light, recreating the deterioration that allows you to distinguish the difference in paint just like vintage models. The modern logo is also placed under the top coat. The neck grip is a 63 Strat C shape measured from a vintage 1963 model. Compared to the typical 60s Oval C shape, it is thicker on the sides when you grip it, but it is basically a thin neck grip type from the 60s. The hardware is a synchronized tremolo with PAT.PEND. engraved saddles, and the machine heads are vintage type F-key pegs. The live sound of the custom shop, which goes beyond the line even among Fenders, is characterized by the clarity of the bolt-on structure, and the airiness and thickness of the sound when output from the amp are truly on another level. Furthermore, the relic finish gives it a great sound, and you can feel the vibration of the body and neck just by playing one chord. The overwhelming sound is so comfortable that you can play it forever without outputting it through an amplifier, and it is a quality that can only be experienced in a custom shop with a satisfying playing feel. The pickups that reproduce this wonderful sound use a well-established set that has been calibrated by installing a different model in each position. The neck is equipped with a 69 single coil, a Fat 50s in the middle, and a Texas Special in the bridge, and the clean sound has a thick wound string and a clear plain string sound, and the drive sound has a rich midrange and is well-balanced and easy to handle. The control is a Vintage Modified Strat #2. The volume is Bleed custom based on a high-pass capacitor that combines a ceramic capacitor and a resistor, and the tone uses Fender paper wax capacitors that match each position. Bleed customization allows you to turn down the volume while maintaining the mid-high range, and the specs are useful for sound making as a gain control, such as lead tone at full volume, backing tone at around 70%, and clean/crunch at 50% or less. The tone capacitor has an overall tone balance by selecting the appropriate capacitor value for each position of the neck & middle tone and bridge tone, and the sound when the tone is cut is also attractive, and the tone is not too thin compared to a general high-pass capacitor, with the mid-range remaining. This guitar has a moderate relic feel and is finished with a large head period look using poly/urethane paint. Don't miss out on this guitar with a rare pink paisley pattern that looks and sounds great!
