Here’s a preowned 2019 Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Big Head Strat in candy apple red with a gold anodized pickguard and handwound Fat 60s pickups. I love the look (and sound) of these large-headstock Strats. This one was built as a Journeyman relic but looks like it may have had some additional relicing done. A strap button was added to the back of the body at some point but has been removed. Plays and sounds terrific. With original case, COA, strap, etc. Fender sez:
“With its large headstock, thick-sounding Fat ‘60s single-coil pickups and jumbo frets, the Limited Edition Big Head Strat is just the thing to add some girth to your music. Designed for supreme playing comfort, the ultra-stable quartersawn AA flame maple neck sports a “ ’63 C”-shaped profile, along with a 9.5”-radius rosewood fingerboard that’s ideal for chord-playing and single-note work alike, and 21 jumbo frets for easy bending. The trio of Hand-Wound Fat ‘60s pickups includes a RWRP middle pickup to reduce hum when used in positions two and four, while the Fat ‘50s wiring reinforces the tone and the Greasebucket™ tone control preserves your volume when dialing back the highs. A 5-way switch completes the package, adding modern pickup combinations to this iconic instrument. Other features include a vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuning machines, gold anodized pickguard, bone nut and wing string tree with nylon spacer. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.”
