Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Paul Waller '59 Strat Heavy Relic

DESCRIPTION

 This Masterbuilt 1959 Stratocaster® by Paul Waller perfectly captures vintage Fender magic with modern playability.

Josefina hand-wound ’50s pickups pair with a Red Hot Strat bridge for classic chime and bite, all dressed up with a gold anodized pickguard and gold hardware for timeless style. A true showcase of master craftsmanship from Paul Waller.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED

After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.
