Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Jason Smith 56 Rosewood Neck Stratocaster NOS Electric Guitar Vintage Blonde

The 1956 Stratocaster is known for its distinctive “V’ shaped neck, and classic ’50s Strat bell-like chime. The “V” shape doesn’t feel too sharp as you would think, it’s great for quick rhythm playing, and as you go up the neck the “V” starts to taper out, excellent for lead playing. We put a spin on this ’56 Strat by giving it a one-piece rosewood neck. The guitar, which has been crafted by Fender Master Builder Jason Smith, has a unique look to it and an even more out-of-the-ordinary tone. Rosewood emphasizes the low end, giving it a “boomier” and looser bottom end. Speaking of tone, this guitar is loaded with Josefina handwound ’50s Strat pickups, the cream of the crop when it comes to Fender electronics.
