Gorgeous limited edition Tomatillo Strat in Lake Placid Blue, with a blender that allows you to mix the neck pickup in with the middle and bridge, a la David Gilmour. Super nice guitar.
Sweeter-sounding than its spicy cousin, but still packing authentic Fender tonal flavor, the Limited Edition Tomatillo Strat Relic III is hiding a few special ingredients inside. The trio of Hand-Wound Tomatillo single-coil Stratocaster pickups are crafted using alnico 2 magnets, reproducing what aged, original-era alnico 5 magnets might sound like today. The pickup set includes a RWRP middle pickup to reduce hum, and are tied together with Strat 1/2 Blender wiring, which lets you blend the neck pickup in to taste when in position one – bridge pickup-only – unlocking sweeter, more flavorful tone. The two-piece body is crafted from alder that was selected for weight and grain. Crafted from AA flame maple, the neck sports an 11/56 Off Center V back shape that comfortable for almost any playing style while the maple fingerboard sports a modern 7.25-9.5″ vintage compound radius and Narrow Tall 6105 frets.
