Description

Here's a 2024 custom build Checkerboard Stratocaster with matching headstock. Super cool 1-off build that pays homage to the great Rick Nielsen! This is a newer custom build, not an authentic Fender with vintage parts. The neck & body are cut by the builder, and not outsourced (like Allparts or Warmoth for example). Big bang for the buck on this one, as it features a maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, Alder body, nitro finish, tremolo, a super worn in C profile neck (with rolled fingerboard edges), Artec Strat pickups, and as mentioned, the killer Checkerboard finish. The relic job is on the heavier side, and looks fantastic! The guitar is lightweight, and plays & feels great! Super resonant body. The neck is super worn in, and plays smooth, with fast playing low action. The frets are medium jumbo's, and in perfect shape. Really cool one here!
