Fender Stratocaster Time Machine – 56 STRATOCASTER CLOSET CLASSIC Electric Guitar Review :: Fender Electric Guitar Reviews
Incorporates many unique details.
The Fender 56 Stratocaster Closet Classic guitar incorporates many unique details from one of the most sought-after and collectable Strats ever made—it features a 10/56 neck, two-piece alder body and single-ply pickguard. Fender has even recreated tooling holes and marks made during the original production process. This guitar features the Closet Classic treatment—built as if it was bought new in its respective model year, played maybe a few times per year and then carefully put away. It has a few small dings, a mildly checked finish, lightly oxidized hardware and aged plastic parts.
