2006 Fender '56 Stratocaster NOS Custom Shop (1956 reissue) Sunburst
No sales tax for customers outside California.
This 2006 Fender Stratocaster NOS has a wild top that almost looks like a flamed ash, thanks in part to the straight grain lines behind the defined, tight flames that nearly line up with the ash grain when you look under the pickguard.
The neck has some sweet figuring to it as well!
Considering that the guitar combines ash and maple, it is pretty remarkable that it weighs almost exactly 7 pounds - a perfect weight for a Strat. It plays perfectly as well.
The guitar was purchased new and stashed by its original owner. The frets show little to no use. It set up perfectly for us with no fuss. Re-strung with a set of 10-46 D'Addario strings. The truss rod has room for future neck relief adjustment. There are no repairs, changes or issues.
There is some light, natural checking on the body. I looked at several sold examples of this same guitar and they showed similar checking.
Included is the original case, COA, price tag, and paperwork.
