This is the exact spec of the Mike McCready Stratocaster, built by the Fender Custom Shop as a Team Built guitar without his name on it. It has become one of our regular Custom Shop orders, and this one we had built left-handed.
Faded 3-Color Sunburst over a two-piece alder body, taken to Super Heavy Relic, with a 3-ply mint green pickguard.
The neck is AA flame maple in a medium-tint nitrocellulose finish, carved to a '60 style oval "C" at .790" at the first fret and .930" at the twelfth. Rosewood fingerboard, 9.5" radius, 21 medium vintage frets and a bone nut.
Hand-wound Fat '60s Strat pickups, with a reverse-wound, reverse-polarity middle so positions two and four are hum-cancelling. Ships in the Fender Custom Shop brown case with the certificate of authenticity.
