Product information

A 1960 Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster in Sherwood Green that looks, feels, and sounds like the real thing, because in every way that matters, it is.

Some of the most compelling guitars coming out of the Fender Custom Shop are the ones that simply feel old the moment you pick them up. This 1960 Stratocaster in Sherwood Green is firmly in that camp.

Fender's Custom Shop output covers a wide range of intentions. Some builds are stylized interpretations of a vintage reference point - beautifully executed on their own terms, but not necessarily chasing a dead-on replica. This Sherwood Green '60 is different. The relic work is authentic and restrained - light, considered wear that tells a believable story without overdoing it. The color is right. The green guard is right. Nothing here feels like a costume, so to speak.

More importantly, it plays and sounds the part. The neck carve is spot on. Spending time regularly with great vintage Stratocasters gives you a reliable internal reference for what that feel actually is, and this guitar has it. The kind of immediate familiarity that makes you stop thinking about the instrument and start thinking about the music.

For players who have been searching for a vintage Stratocaster experience without the anxiety of owning, and insuring, the real thing, this is a serious option. Honest, refined, and deeply satisfying to play.
