Here’s a rare and spectacular Fender Custom Shop Artisan koa thinline Strat. I’ll let Fender describe it for you, the pictures speak for themselves.
“The Artisan Koa Thinline Stratocaster® is an enticing and elegant guitar with everything you’d expect in playability and tone from the Fender Custom Shop. Stunning in look, sound and feel, it has a hollow mahogany body with an “F” hole and 4A figured koa top, which makes for an unusually alluring aesthetic and distinctive tone. The 3A birdseye maple neck is sculpted with a comfortable 1960 “oval-C” profile, topped by a beautiful African blackwood fingerboard with a compound radius (9.5”-12”) and 21 narrow tall frets. The 11-hole single-ply brown shell pickguard holds three hand-wound Fat ’50s pickups, with five-way switching a, vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines with brown shell buttons, bone nut, and “wing” string tree with metal spacer. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.”
