Fender ST57G-65
A stunning Custom Edition ST57 from Fender Japan. Not your usual Sunburst affair here; this Strat is far more striking than your run of the mill 50's style Fender. Sporting an awesome Charcoal Green finish - achieved with a blow torch to burn the grain black prior to paint. Very rock n roll. The gold hardware adds some zing and pairs up beautifully oranged vintage clear coat of the neck.

Our old ST57 has had a life, there's a few scratches and dings here and there (pictured) but it wears them all exceptionally well! It's had a strap button on the lower horn at some point (Hendrix baby). The electronics and pickguard have been swapped out (details in spec). The guitar has previously (crudely) routed for a humbucker at some point in the past, I've tidied it up best I could but it is thankfully hidden under the scratchplate! We've levelled and crowned the frets ready for another 30 years of service!
