Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Dick Dale’s Custom Shop Signature Stratocaster combines a select alder body with a lightly figured maple neck, rosewood fingerboard and reverse headstock bearing Dale’s signature. Three Custom Shop ’50s single-coil Strat pickups run through special three-way switching and a master volume control, giving the electronics a deliberately direct control layout. The guitar also carries a vintage-style six-saddle American Vintage synchronized tremolo, 21 vintage-style frets and white dot inlays. A deluxe hardshell case is included.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or rehearsal setups that need three single-coil pickups, three-way selection and one master volume control.
- Transport between sessions when you want the included deluxe hardshell case.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require a five-way pickup selector; this guitar uses special three-way switching.
- Players looking for a maple fingerboard; this model uses rosewood.
