Review Summary
A standout classic, the '68 Paisley instruments feature a bold, psychedelic-inspired aesthetic straight from the "flower power" era. The Limited Edition '68 Paisley Strat Relic is an homage to these storied instruments, combining vintage-cool style with modern playability and tone. The two-piece alder body wears a Relic lacquer finish that will wear in a distinctly personal way. The lightly tinted riftsawn maple neck sports a urethane finish and medium-tinted lacquer headstock face-just like the originals. The "C"-shaped profile is comfortable for any playing style and the 9.5"-radius round-lam maple fingerboard hosts 21 6105 frets.
The 3-ply, paisley covered parchment pickguard hosts a trio of hand-wound single-coil pickups for authentic Fender tone: a Texas Special bridge pickup, RWRP Fat '50's middle pickup to reduce hum and a '69 neck pickup, all tied together with Vintage Modified #2 wiring.
Other features include an American Vintage synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut and wing string tree with nylon spacer. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
