A lively, resonant ’50s-style Strat in Dirty White Blonde, this compound-radius, Fat ’50s-loaded beauty delivers classic chime, Tele-like snap, and effortless playability in one seriously cool package.

As we’ve said before, shopping for a new Stratocaster can feel overwhelming - there are a lot out there. Specs can point you in the right direction, but they won’t tell you what it’s like to hold an instrument and really play it. We get it.

So, we’ll leave the full spec sheet down below for those who like to dig in, but the real question is: why this one?

First, the look and vibe. For our money? This is a seriously cool looking Strat - Dirty White Blonde finish, lightly aged maple neck, rounded ’50s-style pickup covers, and a single-ply eggshell guard. It just has that thing we find alluring.

As the name hints, you’re getting a compound radius neck (7 1/4"–9 1/2") with a comfy ’54 U profile (.90"–.97") and 6105 frets. On paper it’s a slightly fuller carve, but in hand it feels incredibly comfortable thanks to the way the carve, radius, nut width, and string spacing all work together. It’s a classic ’50s feel without any extra bulk (it actually feels a lot like a real mid-'50s Strat).

From the first few riffs and single-note runs, we were struck by how lively and resonant this guitar is. You feel it vibrating against your chest and in your fretting hand - the body and neck working as one.

Plugged in, it’s got that open, chimey tone you want from a great ’50s Strat - somewhere between Strat sparkle and Tele snap - while the Fat ’50s pickups bring a touch more output and low-end. It’s a setup that rewards players who work their right-hand dynamics and controls to pull every bit of expression from the guitar. Great stuff.
