This Special Run 1957 Stratocaster Heavy Relic is finished in Aged Fiesta Red, with bold aging that gives it the look and feel of a well-played mid-’50s Strat that’s seen decades of use. The Heavy Relic lacquer shows deep wear throughout, while the lightweight ash body keeps the response open, lively, and resonant. It has an immediate, broken-in feel that’s equal parts visual character and functional instrument.

The one-piece quartersawn maple neck features a ’57-style soft “V” back shape that sits comfortably in the hand, offering a distinctly vintage grip without feeling cumbersome. A modern 9.5" radius and narrow tall frets keep things smooth and approachable across the board, while Custom Shop hand-wound 1957 Strat pickups deliver clear, articulate tones with classic sparkle and warmth. Wired with Vintage Modified #2 wiring, it offers familiar Strat versatility with a refined edge. Comes with Deluxe Hardshell Case, strap, and Certificate of Authenticity.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
