Fender Custom Shop Deluxe Trans Ash Stratocaster Natural Electric Guitar, (Used)

The Fender Custom Shop Deluxe Trans Ash Stratocaster Natural is a premium U.S.-made guitar that highlights the beauty and tone of carefully selected woods. Its two-piece ash body is finished in a transparent natural lacquer that lets the grain show through, while the one-piece quartersawn maple neck and fingerboard provide a smooth playing surface with 22 Sanko 6105 frets. With a 9.5-inch radius and 25.5-inch scale, it strikes a balance between vintage feel and modern comfort, making it responsive for both chords and lead work.

Tonally, it’s equipped with three Custom Shop single-coil pickups in an SSS layout: a ’69 Strat NOS in the neck, a reverse-wound/reverse-polarity ’69 Strat in the middle, and a Strat J. Cruz in the bridge. These are controlled through the standard 5-way selector, master volume, and two tone knobs, delivering the classic Strat voice with exceptional clarity, articulation, and dynamic range. Whether you’re after sparkling cleans or expressive overdrive, the pickups respond with precision and character.

The hardware is built to complement the high-end construction. A Custom Shop synchronized tremolo and Schaller tuners ensure stable tuning and smooth performance, while quality chrome components finish the aesthetic. Combined with the bright, snappy tone of the ash body and the resonance of the maple neck, this Stratocaster offers a refined, articulate sound and a playing experience that reflects the meticulous craftsmanship of Fender’s Custom Shop.
