Fender '56 American Vintage Stratocaster (1956 reissue) Mary Kaye Blonde Callaham Trem

We live by these words. Moe's Guitars, Our philosophy: If we wouldn't play it, we wouldn't sell it; it's that simple.

This instrument came in and after set up it just didn't play right, so I pulled the listing. If you look at the ending photos you will see the original crude Fender Bridge and the Brand New Callaham V/N just installed. The Fender bridge was tooled incorrectly pushing the B String Bridge Saddle to the right. This caused the holes from the trem block not to line up correctly with the high E string causing the high E not to line up over the pole piece. It also caused string Roll Off from the 12th fret down.

The Callaham solved all those problem making this a dream to play. There is now low action with plenty of room to spare on the edge of the neck. The string lines up over the pickup and it just sounds Better!

If you enjoy larger neck Strats you should fall in love with this one now. Ships in its original case with all case candy and hang tags.
