🔥 One-of-a-Kind Boutique Stratocaster – Warmoth Black Korina Body, Tru 62 Pickups, Built to Outperform Fender Custom Shop 🔥
Description:
If you’re looking for the best Strat-style guitar you'll ever play, this is it. Come play it and you will see for yourself.
Eight years ago, I hand-built 10 high-end boutique Stratocasters using only the finest vintage-correct components — and I kept the absolute best one** for myself. Most of them were sold to big stage musicians. Now, it’s time to let it go.
This is a one-of-a-kind, no-expense-spared, vintage-inspired Strat built from Warmoth’s most premium tonewoods and upgraded far beyond anything Fender Custom Shop is putting out today.
🪵 Specs:
Body: Chambered Black Korina (Warmoth special stock) with soft satin finish – lightweight, resonant, and visually stunning
Neck: Quartersawn Maple with Rosewood fretboard (Warmoth premium neck) – smooth, stable, and fast
Nut: Genuine Bone Tusq – hand-cut for perfect intonation and sustain
Pickups Rare David Allen Tru 62’s – authentic 1962 Strat tone with unmatched clarity and warmth. This set was made from examination of a 1962 Strat that had "The Tone". Alnico 5 magnets but we use our modern stagger to work with today's strings and flatter radius neck, and 42 ga wire all 3 are "F" 52mm spaced. This set will cover the 61 - 64 Strat tones so Knopfler ('61 Rosewood fret board), Rory, SRV "Scotch", Hendrix studio Strat and more.
Neck 6.13 Middle 6.28 RWRP Bridge 6.6 . Artist Playing:
Adam Shoenfeld (Session Guitarist Jason Aldean, Florida Georgia Line, on tour with Tim McGraw), Ben Helson (guitarist: Dierks Bently formerly Maddie and Tae)
Wiring: Heavy-gauge, hand soldered, vintage white/black cloth wiring – just like Fender used in the ‘50s and ‘60s
Electronics: Custom DB Boost switch hidden in tone knob – adds depth, grit, and punch on demand
Tuners: Schaller Locking Tuners with pearl tips – tuning stability with style and tremolo bar.
Pickguard:** Pearloid – classic and clean
Backplate:** Custom-etched with "Lady Luck" – the finishing touch
Case: Comes in an official Fender Custom Shop tweed hardshell case.
🎯 The **action is set ultra-low with zero fret buzz. This guitar plays like liquid and sings with soul. It's not a parts caster — it's a **master-crafted performance instrument** built for tone, feel, and presence.
My Challenge to You:
Bring your best Stratocaster — Custom Shop, vintage, signature, doesn’t matter.
Play it next to this one. You’ll hear the difference. You’ll feel the difference.
You’ll put your Fender down and leave it in the case.
This guitar wins. Every time.
💰 Value:
A comparable build from Fender Custom Shop would easily run you **\$6,000 or more** — and it still wouldn’t give you the same rare tonewoods, hard-to-find pickups, custom wiring, and personalized craftsmanship you get here.
🎸 Asking $3,500 – Serious inquiries only. This is a once-in-a-lifetime Strat for a serious player who wants to stand out in every way.
🏆 Final Thought:
Anybody can own a Fender Custom Shop guitar.
But only one person on earth can own this beauty!
