Personal Thoughts:
This one’s got all the mojo—factory relic work is some of the best we’ve seen from 2021, and the rosewood board on this is especially dark and rich. Neck carve feels perfectly broken in, and the 60s pickups deliver that signature bell-like tone. Classic looks, spot-on feel, and a real player’s vibe.
Condition Report:
Excellent condition. Factory relic throughout—no extra wear or dings beyond what Fender intended. Frets are clean, setup is dialed in, and the guitar plays like a dream.
