Unmistakable tone with custom shop pickups At the heart of the Fender Custom Shop 1965 Strat is a set of Custom Shop Fat 60s pickups delivering the iconic bell-like tone that defined the sound of the 1960s. These hand-wound pickups are meticulously crafted to produce a clear articulate sound with rich harmonics and a smooth vintage warmth. The reverse-wound reverse-polarity middle pickup ensures hum-cancelling performance in positions two and four making this guitar a versatile choice across a wide range of musical styles. From glassy cleans to classic overdriven blues tones these pickups capture the unmistakable sound of a golden era.

Crafted from premium plain-grain maple with a rosewood fingerboard this neck delivers smooth fast playability and a classic feel. The 9.5-inch fingerboard radius strikes a perfect balance between vintage authenticity and modern performance allowing for comfortable chording and precise soloing. Medium vintage frets further enhance the playing experience offering effortless bends and smooth action across the fingerboard.
