The neck is a comfy ’83 “C” profile with a 7.25″ radius, while the pickup set (including a custom-wound Seymour Duncan SSL-5) delivers everything from glassy cleans to singing leads with unmistakable character.

Whether you’re chasing echoes or carving your own path, this Strat is equal parts museum piece and road-ready workhorse.
