General

Looking for a special Strat that comes with an ultra-clean foundation sound? Check out the Fender Custom Shop Custom Build Limited Edition '56 Hardtail Strat. Equipped with a hardtail bridge as its name suggests, this model offers superior stability and resonance, and features a body made of two hand-picked chunks of ash - a tonewood known for shaping clear sound and masses of sustain. Add that to the pair of Custom Shop Hand-Wound 11/56 Strat pickups and you're basically all set in terms of widely adaptable tone.

The Custom Build ‘56 Hardtail Strat: Unique Neck Carve

The Fender Custom Shop team have opted for a rift-sawn maple neck with an 11/56 off-centre V-profile and a vintage-style maple fretboard with a compound radius that graduates from 7.25 inches at the headstock to 9.5 inches at the body. As a result, this first-class Stratocaster supports both rhythm and lead parts by offering superb playing comfort across the board. Finished with opulent Closet Classic-style hardware, the Custom Built Limited Edition '56 Hardtail Strat comes complete with a deluxe case, a guitar strap and a certificate of authenticity.
