{"product_id":"1956-stratocaster-relic-maple-fingerboard-faded-aged-2-color-sunburst","title":"Fender 1956 Stratocaster Relic, Maple Fingerboard, Faded Aged 2-Color Sunburst","description":"\u003cp\u003e1956 was a transitional year for the Strat®, with the introduction of alder bodies rather than ash on Sunburst and custom-color models. In November of that year, a soft “V” neck back shape appeared that was sometimes slightly off center—a profile we’ve recreated for this version—and the rectangular “wing” string tree replaced the disc type. Overall, the 1956 Strat became a highly sought-after classic, and now we’ve given it several updated player-friendly appointments for comfort and improved tonal capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two-piece alder body’s Relic lacquer finish gives the look and feel of a well-loved guitar that’s seen countless stages. The rift-sawn tinted maple neck plays fast, with a comfortable 9.5”-radius fingerboard and 21 narrow tall frets. The trio of Hand-Wound Fat ‘50s single-coil pickups includes a reverse-wound\/reverse-polarity middle pickup to reduce hum. Fat ‘50s wiring creates stronger tone with more transparent bloom, reducing treble loss when rolling back volume—achieved in part by wiring the tone pot to the output of the volume pot. Other features include Closet Classic hardware, five-way switch, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and wing string tree. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel Name: 1956 Stratocaster® Relic®, Maple Fingerboard, Faded Aged 2-Color Sunburst\u003cbr\u003eModel #: 9235001130\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Time Machine\u003cbr\u003eCountry Of Origin: US\u003cbr\u003eColor: Faded Aged 2-Color Sunburst\u003cbr\u003eBody: 2-Piece Select Alder\u003cbr\u003eBody Finish: Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003eBody Shape: Stratocaster®\u003cbr\u003eNeck Material: Rift Sawn Maple\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003eNeck Shape: 11\/56 Off Center \"V\"\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 22.5\" (572 mm)\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Maple\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 9.5\" (241 mm)\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets: 21\u003cbr\u003eFrets Size: Narrow Tall\u003cbr\u003eString Nut: Bone\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1.650\" (42 mm)\u003cbr\u003ePosition Inlays: Black Dot\u003cbr\u003eTruss Rods: Vintage-Style\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®\u003cbr\u003eMiddle Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '60s RWRP Single-Coil Strat®\u003cbr\u003eNeck Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®\u003cbr\u003eControls: Master Volume, Tone 1.
