The Fender Custom Shop Postmodern Stratocaster® DLX Closet Classic delivers vintage-inspired tone with thoughtful modern refinements. Its select sassafras body features a DLX Closet Classic nitrocellulose lacquer finish, creating the look and feel of a cherished instrument that's been lovingly played for decades.
Three hand-wound Custom Shop El Diablo Strat® pickups provide the foundation for this guitar's voice. The reverse-wound, reverse-polarity middle pickup reduces hum while delivering classic Stratocaster® clarity and punch. A Greasebucket tone circuit for the bridge pickup preserves low-end response when rolling off treble, while the traditional control layout offers precise tonal sculpting.
The quartersawn maple neck features a comfortable '63 Strat "C" back shape and a 3A rosewood fingerboard with a modern 9.5"–12" compound radius for enhanced playability. Its 21 narrow-tall frets (6105) offer precise control and smooth bending.
Other premium features include an RSD Stratocaster Tremolo Bridge with Vintage-Style Steel Saddles, Vintage-Style Tuning Machines with Fender® logo, a Bone Nut, a 3-Ply Black Pickguard, an American Vintage ’59–’64 String Tree, a Deluxe Hardshell Case, a Strap and a Certificate of Authenticity.
