Description

In 2024, we celebrate seventy years of the iconic Stratocaster, now reaching its platinum anniversary. To commemorate this remarkable milestone, the Fender Custom Shop proudly unveils the Limited Edition '54 Hardtail Stratocaster Deluxe Closet Classic with Gold Hardware. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this instrument embodies the essence of seven decades of excellence in electric guitar craftsmanship.

Constructed with a two-piece select ash body, featuring an offset seam on the treble side, this Stratocaster exudes vibrant resonance, boasting rich highs, lush midrange, and defined lows. Adorned with dazzling gold hardware and enveloped in a stunning Deluxe Closet Classic lacquer finish in Two-Colour Sunburst, it's a testament to timeless elegance.

The Deluxe Closet Classic finish, reflecting the care and pride of its owner over the years, showcases moderate finish checking, hardware oxidation, and mild discolouration, resulting in a complex and refined aesthetic akin to a fine wine's evolution.

The one-piece quartersawn maple neck showcases a special 70th-anniversary Soft V profile inspired by a legendary July 1954 Strat neck. Topped with a vintage compound-radius fingerboard ranging from 7.25" to 9.5" and adorned with 21 medium vintage (47095) frets and a 1.625" bone nut, it offers unparalleled playability and comfort. Powered by three Custom Shop hand-wound '54 Strat pickups, this guitar delivers the iconic Stratocaster tone, characterised by clear, bell-like highs. Its vintage '54 Strat wiring with wax paper cap and five-way switching ensures authentic sound reproduction.

This instrument is adorned with a rare selection of period-correct appointments, including a single-ply white pickguard, vintage-style hardtail bridge, and vintage-style tuners, epitomizing the golden age of the Stratocaster. Accompanied by a disc string tree, deluxe embroidered hardshell case, strap, and certificate of authenticity, it's a collector's dream and a player's delight.
