Description

The Heavy Relic '61 Strat takes you back to a special time in the venerable model's evolution, when Leo Fender was constantly tweaking, advancing, innovating and perfecting. 1961 was the last year of the slab rosewood fingerboard, ushering in a new era of '60s Strats along with many other changes and improvements. On this model, a two-piece select alder body wears a well-worn Heavy Relic lacquer finish, and the quartersawn maple neck has a '60s-style "oval C" profile, a 9.5-inch-radius flat-laminated rosewood fingerboard and 21 jumbo frets for classic feel and massive bends.

Hand-wound Custom Shop Texas Special™ pickups provide extra output and are strung with Vintage Modified #2 wiring with Tone-Saver bleed circuitry and five-way switching, all on a three-ply mint green pickguard. Other features include a Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuners, bone nut and winged string tree with large metal spacer. Also includes a deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
