To celebrate 70 years of the Stratocaster (the platinum anniversary of the world's greatest electric guitar) the Fender Custom Shop introduces the Limited Edition 70th Anniversary 1954 Stratocaster.

Its one-piece quartersawn maple neck is fashioned with a special 70th anniversary Soft "V" profile based on an incredible Strat neck from July 1954. this is topped with vintage compound-radius fingerboard (7.25" to 9.5") with 21 medium vintage frets and a 1.625" bone nut. three Custom Shop hand-wound '54 Strat pickups deliver that classic Strat voice with clear, bell-like highs, routed through vintage '54 Strat wiring with wax paper cap and five-way switching.
Other premium features and authentic first-year Strat appointments include a single-ply white pickguard and serial-number back plate, 1954-style ABS white pickup covers and control knobs, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuners, disc string tree, special 70th Anniversary Stratocaster neck plate, deluxe embroidered hardshell case, special "case candy" kit and certificate of authenticity.
