Personal Thoughts:
The Dealer Exclusive Flamethrower Series represents Fender Custom Shop craftsmanship at its absolute finest — limited runs built for elite dealers, combining vintage soul with cutting-edge playability and premium tonewoods.
This Candy Tangerine example is a head-turner — the metallic orange hue glows vividly under light, perfectly offset by the Journeyman Relic finish, which adds tasteful checking and wear for that authentic vintage vibe. The AAAA flamed neck and board shimmer beautifully, giving this Strat an unmistakable boutique aesthetic.
The Mid-’60s Oval “C” neck is one of the best Fender profiles to date — slim, fast, and incredibly comfortable. Paired with the compound 9.5"–16" radius and 6100 jumbo frets, the playability feels silky smooth from rhythm to lead work.
Tonally, the Custom Shop ’60s hand-wound pickups deliver everything you want in a Strat — bell-like cleans, crisp highs, and a throaty midrange when pushed. The modern wiring and 250K 10% taper pots provide precise tonal control with a refined sweep — perfect for recording or live work.
It’s lightweight, responsive, and built with exceptional detail — the kind of Strat that inspires creativity the moment you pick it up.
