Fender Stratocaster LTD RSTD 61 Super Heavy Relic (2022)

We are delighted to be able to offer you another specimen from the coveted “Roasted Limited Edition” at a bargain price. A glance at the spec sheet reveals that this model features one exclusive upgrade after another. The body is made of selected roasted alder and the quartersawn neck is made of roasted maple. Not only have handwound pickups been installed, but the aging of the guitar is also at the highest and most cost-intensive level with the attractive “Aged 3-Tone Sunburst” finish having undergone a Super-Heavy Relicing. The artificial signs of aging are not limited to hairline cracks and minor and major blemishes; the appearance of the Strat can be described as a total work of art. In addition to hairline cracks and blemishes the paint has also been rubbed off in characteristic places in such a way that even individual color nuances and tones stand out in isolation. This degree of aging is not only beautiful to the eye, but also a dream to the touch! Just pick up the neck, which feels like it has been played for 50 years, and you'll want to run your fingers over the deep dark AAA rosewood fingerboard, where even every single dot has been wonderfully reliced. You immediately notice the harmonious combination of specifications with the comfortable “Large C” neck profile and 9.5" fretboard radius, together with the fantastically dressed 6100 Jumbo frets, ensuring the very best playing characteristics. Sonically you're in the realm of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Philipp Sayce! Even when played dry the Strat is extremely resonant and loud, but as soon as you plug it into an amp the “Handwound Texas Special” pickups reveal their full potential. If you're looking for a powerful, direct, and lively Texas Blues tone à la Stevie Ray Vaughan, a little Tubescreamer and a loud amp will transport you to seventh heaven. It's perfect for the clear, sparkling tones of “Texas Flood” and “Pride & Joy,” but also for the wild, distorted licks of “Voodoo Child” and “Purple Haze”! ...and when you can use the blend control to seamlessly switch the neck pickup to the bridge, the tonal bliss is complete. This limited edition Stratocaster, a phenomenal combination of sound, feel, and look, with a list price of around EUR 5,900, comes to its future owner in mint condition.
