Throughout 1950’s and beyond, many of the most popular guitarists played the Stratocaster on some of the most popular recordings ever. This unique Master-Built 11/56 "Closet Classic" Stratocaster, hand crafted by Master-Builder Chris Fleming, is a very limited edition and an excellent example of the very best that the Fender Custom Shop Master Builders has to offer. As a closet classic, this instrument has minor signs of aging, such as swirl marks and minor surface scratches on the body and headstock. It's as though someone bought it 50+ years ago, played it for a short while, and then left in in a closet for several decades!
