Fender Stratocaster 1960 Custom Shop - Closet Classic Time Machine Series ( 2004)- £2,995
Inside and out, the 60 Stratocaster Fender Closet Classic guitar is a detailed recreation of its Kennedy-era ancestor. It features an alder body, ’60s C-shaped maple neck, and for the first time in its history a smaller truss rod and slab laminated rosewood fingerboard with clay dot markers. The pickup design is faithful to the original right down to the materials and winding, producing a characteristically smooth and glassy tone. Under the hood, Fender has even replicated the finish undercoating and the pickup-wiring routing in the body. This electric guitar features the Closet Classic treatment, built as if it was bought new in its respective model year, played maybe a few times per year and then carefully put away. It has a few small dings, a mildly checked finish, lightly oxidized hardware and aged plastic parts.
