Listed is a awesome American Fender Stratocaster HSS custom heavy relic nitro silver sparkle over seafoam green; inspired by a 2017 American Fender Strat with a 70’s style headstock.

No dirt, polyurethane or shoe polish used in any of our relics. We added mojo with .008 metal flake, pigment and texture to realistically replicate age and feel of that old heavy relic guitar you always wanted but couldn’t afford. Adler body weighing in at a little over 7.15 lbs we spared no expense in quality or time to get that custom shop look, feel and sound without shelling out $4-7K.

Additionally installed is a 500k volume pot upgrade with treble bleed circuitry for the best tonal range possible. Rosewood fretboard, synthetic bone nut-25.5″ scale length-9.5 radius and “C” shaped neck. Jumbo frets were dressed and polished then setup and intonated with new Slinky 09’s; she’s ready to go! Six point vintage tuners, bridge saddles, screws and hardware were aged and sealed, so that they will look tomorrow, the way they look today for years to come.
Yes we spray nitro metal flake. Guitarwacky’s proprietary finish process involves several coats of HVLP nitro lacquer, the finish is totally hand sanded, rubbed and aged. This Stratocaster finish is beautifully aged, soft and smooth to the touch.
Understanding the significance of quality, Guitarwacky relics are flawlessly detailed by artisans whose love for guitar can only be measured by the level of detail embodied within their relic art. This heavy relic arrives in the brand new generic tweed case pictured.
