The Postmodern collection offers a choice of guitars not necessarily affiliated with one pre-CBS build or period but offer a blend of vintage features with improved ergonomic and sonic features. This Postmodern Strat has a two-piece alder body, a "rift sawn" maple neck and round-laminated rosewood fingerboard. The neck has a '59 D-shaped profile and the contoured neck heel provides extra playing comfort and reach higher on the neck. The fingerboard has a compound radius from 9.5" to 12" and 21 narrow tall frets.
The pickups are a trio of Dual Mag II hand wound single coils. This Custom Shop pickup features a mix of alnico 2 and 5 magnets and an overwound coil. They give lots of output, bandwidth a headroom. The three single coils -with reversed wound / reversed polarity middle pickup- are wired in the traditional 5-position circuit. The bridge is a Custom Shop vintage synchonized tremolo and the tuners are vintage "Kluson-style."
Fender's Custom Shop luthiers have mastered the craft of applying the aged, relic'te look like no other. This Postmodern Strat has a subtle "Journeyman Relic" finish with "Closet Classic" hardware.
The sound of this Strat is warm and fat with a very pleasant mid character that provides a fine, warm definition when playing clean and a creamy edge when overdriving the amp.
Included is the deluxe, original Fender case, matching accessories and, of course, the certificate.

De gitaren uit de Fender Custom Shop zijn écht "something else". De mate van output, tonaal bereik en vooral het bijzondere karakter van de Custom Shop instrumenten is ongekend en moeilijk te vergelijken met andere instrumenten. Met deze handgemaakte instrumenten laat Fender zien, en vooral horen, dat zij onmiskenbaar de baas zijn als het gaat om de meest tone-volle, authentiek klinkende Strats, Tele's, Offset's, Jazz- en P-bassen.
