This 2018 Fender Custom Shop 1960 Stratocaster Relic is a looker, a great player, and it includes upgraded Ron Ellis pickups.  The original Fender pickups, hand wound by Celina Garcia, are included.

The control cavity has seen a little work along with the pickup swap.  It appears that the original tone caps are in the case, some different caps are in place on the original pots.  The 5 way switch is original.

The knobs have been swapped out, and again the originals were retained.

A very professional refret was performed.  The frets currently on the guitar are larger than the originals, allowing you to really dig in when playing.  They show little to no wear.  We were able to get the guitar set up perfectly with a set of 10-46 strings.

The relic work is tastefully done.  The back of the neck feels really good.  The weight is just about perfect at 7 pounds, 9 ounces.  

The original strap and paperwork are included in the original case.
