Personal Reflection
This '62 Stratocaster "Shredder" edition is decked out like no other Strat you’ve seen. The Heavy Relic Blue Sparkle finish absolutely pops—it’s eye-catching, bold, and a perfect fit for those who want a guitar that stands out in both looks and performance. The addition of a Floyd Rose tremolo makes this Fender Custom Shop 62 Stratocaster Blue Sparkle a serious machine for dive bombs, extreme bends, and all the shredding you could want.
What really makes this model unique are the electronics. The '60s Custom Shop single-coils in the neck and middle provide that signature Strat warmth and clarity, while the EVH Wolfgang humbucker in the bridge takes the tone to a whole new level. Ben was blown away by the versatility of this setup.The Wolfgang humbucker delivers a thick, punchy sound with loads of output, perfect for heavier styles. He pointed out how the combination of pickups makes this guitar a tonal powerhouse—you get the classic Strat tones in positions 1-4, but when you switch to the bridge, it’s like flipping the switch to full-on rock mode. It’s really a best-of-both-worlds setup.
The flame maple neck is another standout feature. The '60s Oval "C" profile feels great in the hand—comfortable but substantial enough to handle the demands of both rhythm and lead playing. This is a guitar built for speed, versatility, and tone, making it an absolute killer for those looking to push the boundaries of what a Strat can do.
