Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Greg Fessler '63 Stratocaster - Surf Green
This Masterbuilt 1963 Stratocaster Relic from Greg Fessler captures everything players love about early sixties Strats. The ash body, aged lacquer finish, and hand wound pickups give it a lively, open voice with the kind of clarity and snap that feels instantly familiar. The Sure Green finish adds a touch of personality without losing the classic character of the build.
The quarter sawn maple neck and dark rosewood flat laminate fingerboard feel smooth and broken in, with a comfortable 1960 profile and a lightly aged surface that plays fast right out of the case. Medium vintage frets, a 7.25 inch radius, and the vintage style hardware complete the feel of a true sixties instrument.
Every detail reflects the care of a Masterbuilder. From the relic work to the wiring to the hand wound pickups, this Strat is built to feel alive in your hands and ready for years of playing.
