Personal Thoughts:
This one’s got attitude — a proper NAMM piece that doesn’t play it safe. The Shell Pink finish with Super Heavy Relic treatment is bold, worn-in, and vibey without going overboard. It’s a visual statement, but also a tonal one.
The roasted rift-sawn maple neck gives a snappy, dry response that pairs beautifully with the warm rosewood board. The large “C” profile feels substantial without being clubby, and the narrow tall frets plus 9.5" radius make for a fluid, fast-playing surface.
Tonally, the blend of ’60 and ’63 pickups gives you all the iconic Strat textures with just a touch more bite and clarity than standard Fat ’50s. It's vintage tone with a bit more muscle — ideal for expressive blues, funk, and clean articulation.
 
Condition Report:
Mint condition — as new from NAMM with zero player wear beyond the intentional Super Heavy Relic work. Includes all original case candy and documentation.
