Here is a gently preowned 2024 Fender Custom Shop American Custom Strat in amber natural. Love the wood grain on this guitar. Built in April 2024. Save some bucks. Great guitar. As-new condition except one teeny dent on the back of the headstock that I can't even get to show up on camera. With case, COA, strap, etc. While Fender's Custom Shop is widely known for their vintage re-creations, the American Custom Series is the Fender of modern times - and then some. With striking finishes combined with contemporary features and detailed craftsmanship, new American Custom models are not only beautiful to behold, but also highly functional in a pure Fender fashion. Here we have a beautiful American Custom Strat with an ash body, roasted maple birdseye neck with a 9.5-12 compound radius, 6105 frets and a comfortable slim 60s Style Oval C carve (.790 - 9.30), strap locks and a contoured heel. A striking aged amber natural finish shows off the grain and is nicely accented with a tortoise pickguard, shell inlays and nitro lacquer. Handwound Custom Shop Fat 64 pickups have vintage mod #2 wiring, a bone nut and 57 style deep body contours. She sings. With hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.

I love small bodied acoustics, and this is one of my favorites. This C10 from Collings offers great tone in a small, comfortable package. Crisp trebles, substantial lows, and beautifully balanced. A great blues guitar, strumming guitar, and equally responsive to some dynamic finger picking, thanks to its narrow waist and small upper bout for focused response, and pre-war scalloped bracing. This example is customized with a 1 3/4 nut, tigerstripe pickguard and a gorgeous dark sunburst. Ebony fretboard, pins and bridge, bone nut and saddle. Collings says this is the ideal guitar for players who switch between electrics and acoustics, because the neck carve is the same rounded profile that you’ll find on the venerable Collings 290 electric, and the heel is small and rounded for excellent access to the upper frets. I agree. Big tone in a small package. Bravo. Lifetime warranty and hardshell Collings case. Serial #34753 Condition: New; Top: Select sitka spruce; Back and sides: Mahogany; Neck: Mahogany, medium-fat C neck carve; Nut: 1 3/4; Width: 14 3/4; Depth: 4 1/4; Scale: 25.5; Binding: Grained ivoroid; Purfling: b/w wood; Rosette: Ivoroid; Orientation: Lefthanded (of course) -

You don't have to look further than Keith Richards' fabled Tele to hear the benefits of a humbucker in the neck position. Here's a gently used Limited Edition Fender Custom Shop 51 Telecaster HS relic. Fender's description:Combining authentic Fender feel with a favorite player’s modification, the Limited Edition ’51 HS Tele Relic adds fat, high output sound to the traditional twang of a Tele. The hand-wound ’50-’51 “Crushed” Blackguard single-coil bridge pickup is joined by a Seymour Duncan® Seth Lover SH-55 humbucking neck pickup for a one-two punch of tone. We customized a dual-stack HS Tele wiring to create the perfect sonic balance between the two, incorporating 250k/500k potentiometers on the volume and tone controls to ensure compatibility.

Sporting a dark tinted Relic flashcoat lacquer finish, the riftsawn maple neck sports a “10/56 V”-shaped profile that’s ideal for all playing styles. For ultimate comfort and playability, we topped the neck with a 7.25”-9.5” compound-radius fingerboard and 21 50085 medium-vintage frets.

This Fender Custom Shop ‘60s Rosewood Telecaster Closet Classic electric guitar re-creates the iconic all-rosewood Telecaster first produced in 1968 as a special run made for artists like George Harrison, Steve Cropper and other luminaries. It was a regular production run guitar from 1969 through 1972. More understated in voice than the typical ash/alder/maple Tele, it’s a guitar that quickly became legendary.

Pearl dots, Schaller F key tuners, a satin finish and 6105 frets. With hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.

Here's an as-new Collings 360 LT M guitar in a special order shell pink finish, alder body, curly maple neck, mint green pickguard, Lollar JazzMaster pickups and the outstanding Mastery offset vibrato and bridge. This was ordered with a custom stout neck carve that is larger than the standard neck (.900 at the nut instead of the standard .865). As Collings says: "Our versatile 360 offset body shape has lent itself to several different adaptations since it's inception in 2009. In this latest incarnation, we are delighted to be working with our innovative friends at Mastery, makers of cutting edge hardware components for offset-style guitars. We've paired their remarkable offset bridge and vibrato with a solid ash (or alder) body and a maple neck to gain a further tonal foothold in the offset guitar sonic pallet. While firmly grounded in the iconic sounds of the offset guitar world, we've integrated a set neck and short scale length into the formula, delivering a resonance and feel that is distinctly Collings."
