Three Custom Shop hand-wound ’65 single-coil pickups
Neck, middle, and bridge pickups supply the guitar’s three single-coil voices.


Independent shopping perspective
Fender Custom Shop’s ’65 Stratocaster Super Heavy Relic combines a 2-piece select alder body with a maple neck, 3A rosewood fingerboard, and three hand-wound ’65 single-coil pickups. The five-way blade switch moves through the pickup combinations, including hum-canceling neck/middle and middle/bridge positions through the RWRP middle pickup. A six-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo handles vibrato work, and narrow tall frets support bends and precise fretting. Its aged Firemist Silver-over-sunburst finish brings a deliberately road-worn look to a guitar supplied with a deluxe hardshell case, strap, and Certificate of Authenticity.
