ender Custom Shop 1950s Duo-Tone Stratocaster Relic 2TS
The Fender Custom Shop 1950s Duo-Tone Stratocaster Relic 2TS is the product of an idea of Fender Germany’s Gernold Linke: to achieve a more balanced tonal character, the body was made with an ash center and two alder wings. As a result, the Fender Custom Shop 1950s Duo-Tone Stratocaster Relic 2TS has a harmonic, balanced sound with twang, power and highs. The one-piece neck of the Fender Custom Shop 1950s Duo-Tone Stratocaster Relic 2TS is made of maple and features a thick V profile that offers comfortable playability. The three hand-wound Abigail Fat 50s also contribute to the vintage sound of the Fender Custom Shop 1950s Duo-Tone Stratocaster Relic 2TS. The relic finish of the Fender Custom Shop 1950s Duo-Tone Stratocaster Relic 2TS makes sure it has some traces of use so that you’ll think you’ve have been playing this instrument for a while.

This unique Strat gets its name from the two pieces of ash and single piece of alder that make up the Sherwood Green-finished body. The two-wood-body approach gives this guitar a balanced sound with loads of character. The finish has a tasteful relic’ing with authentic-looking wear on the nickel hardware and light simulated crazing on the top and back of the body. The three Fat ‘50s Strat pickups have a clear, glassy sound that have an excellent balance of clarity and tone. The neck has a nice mid-oval “C” shape with a 9.5” radius Indian rosewood fret board. The 21 vintage jumbo (6150) frets are in great shape with no noticeable wear. The Duo Tone weighs in at a comfortable 7 lbs 14 ounces.
