Built for the 2025 NAMM show, this Strat blends classic Strat tones with a '70s-like hot-rodded attitude.
Built around a lightweight 2-piece ash body and finished in a beautifully worn Relic nitro lacquer, this Custom Shop 2025 NAMM Limited Deluxe Stratocaster delivers vintage-inspired looks with a modern, hot-rodded vibe.
The quartersawn maple neck features a hand-shaped '65 "C" carve that fills the hand just right - substantial, but never bulky. A 9.5” radius rosewood fingerboard and 22 narrow-tall frets give you smooth, modern playability with room for expressive bends and clean vibrato all the way up the neck.
A Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge delivers the punch and grit of a classic overwound humbucker which is ideal for lead tones or riffs that need to cut through the mix. Paired with Custom Shop ’69 single coils in the middle and neck (with an RWRP middle for hum-canceling in-between tones), you've got a full spectrum of late-‘60s Strat tones on tap.
Other premium touches include a 2-point Strat trem, staggered American Pro tuners, mint green guard, and parchment knobs - all working together to make this one of the more visually and sonically compelling Strats we've had through the shop. A standout build from the Fender Custom Shop, no question.
