Pulled the trigger in Ebay for a 2010 Mint Fender Custom Shop 60's NOS Reissue Stratocaster guitar in Nocaster Blonde color, with rosewood board.

I still don't have the guitar, it will ship tomorrow to Miami, and then I will have to bring it back home to Argentina, but I wanted to share some pics as I am pretty excited!

By the way and before anyone asks, it set me back for 2K flat.

Cheers,
Nico

Nice! Looks like that is is nice and quartersawn. Congrats!
 
Nice! Custom shop fenders get a lot of hate on here for some reason, but my custom shop '63 tele closet classic I got used is really nice, especially since I got some big ass frets put on it :rawk:
 
nice guitar! COnsidering what they are selling the usa ri strats for and even the mex ri , 2 grand for a new custom shop ri is a pretty sweet deal.
 
Very Nice. :thumbsup: I see you were also looking for an Yngwie Strat, are you going to scallop the neck on this one?
 
Thanks guys!

I don't think I have the balls to scallop a brand new custom shop strat. Maybe down the road, and only if I find someone competent enough, but its very unlikely

Only thing I will do is swap out the 3 way toggle switch in favor of a 5 way switch. Maybe later I will look into replacing the stock pups for some BKP set. But that depends on how I like the stock ones.

Yeah the 5-way switch for sure. Dude I love the stock PU's, its FENDER! :thumbsup:
 
Beautiful Blonde/Butterscotch color !

The Argentine Babes will be jealous for sure.


Is the tone nice and warm like the color ?
