This '59 Reissue Strat is a beautiful blend of vintage feel and modern clarity. The Texas Specials have plenty of bite, ideal for Texas blues and fiery lead tones. The rift-sawn maple neck is super stable and adds a slightly brighter attack to the tone, while the 9mm laminated fingerboard ensures superb sustain and feel. The relic finish is tastefully done, giving it that played-in mojo without going overboard.Whether you're after glassy cleans or throaty lead tones, this Strat is a joy to play and a visual standout.
