Description

This Custom Deluxe Strat Heavy Relic with Matching Headcap is finished in Candy Apple Red, paired with bold Heavy Relic lacquer that gives the guitar a deeply broken-in look and feel. The 2-piece select ash body keeps things lively and responsive, while the matching headcap ties the visual together for a cohesive, Custom Shop-forward presentation. It has the presence of a road-worn instrument that’s been played hard and cared for along the way.

The quartersawn maple neck features a comfortable ’60s-style oval “C” profile, matched with a 3A rosewood fingerboard and a modern 9.5" radius that feels familiar and easy across the neck. Custom Shop hand-wound Fat ’60s Strat pickups—with an RWRP middle—deliver warm, articulate Strat tones with excellent balance, wired through Vintage Modified Strat #2 wiring for usable, expressive versatility. A polished blend of vintage feel and modern Custom Shop execution. 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.
