Fender Stratocaster 59 Heavy Relic Masterbuilt Vincent van Trigt (2023)

By now we've become accustomed to being left breathless as soon as we open the case of a van Trigt guitar. Time and again he impresses with such phenomenal aging that bears his signature through and through. It is therefore not at all surprising that this absolute shooting star among masterbuilders currently has a waiting time of 10(!) years, assuming he would accept any further orders at all. And with this '59 Stratocaster in Vintage White he has also interpreted Heavy Relicing in a way that only he can. Countless hairline cracks, quirks and abrasions adorn the wonderfully worn, matt finish. Pure vintage patina! The elegant golden-aged hardware, the fantastically grained AA flame back of the neck and the dark rosewood fingerboard are a perfect match. With the "60 Style Oval C" profile, 9.5" radius, the proven Vintage Upgrade frets and a killer weight of only 3130 grams this Strat is extremely comfortable to play and offers first-class handling. Already extremely percussive and rich in sustain when played dry, the three handwound "Fat 50's" singlecoils show their full potential at the amp: brilliant, clear with the perfect amount of twang, yet without harsh highs and with enough belly - that's what you want from a '59 Masterbuilt! Whether Blues, Rock, Pop or Funk, this Stratocaster delivers everything in top style and with plenty of character. All classic Strat sounds are excellently covered here. So, if you want a Stratocaster that not only looks great but also has exceptional sound characteristics, then this is the guitar for you! The fact that guitars from van Trigt are also among the most sought-after masterbuilt instruments of all and are constantly increasing in value due to their rarity is just a pleasant side effect in view of this perfect overall package. We are delighted to be able to offer you this dream Strat in top condition.
