Dale Wilson is known across the globe as one of Fenders highly revered Masterbuilders, a select group of the worlds most esteemed luthiers. With this Godly status, any guitar with his name attached generates a huge amount of interest, and rightly so.

The Fender Custom Shop Dale Wilson Masterbuilt Relic ’69 Strat is a great example of the legendary prowess of the Masterbuilders.

The Alder body is finished in a stunning Wide 3-Tone Sunburst nitro lacquer. Authentically aged, this finish will wear beautifully with time and develop its own character even further. The thin nitro finish also allows the natural resonance of the body to sing and sustain much more effectively.

The 5/4 quarter sawn Maple neck has a smooth medium tint Nitro lacquer finish and with an AAA sort for dark Rosewood fingerboard, 9.5″ radius and 21 narrow tall 6105 frets, the ’69 Custom Shop Stratocaster can handle anything you throw at it without even breaking a sweat; it’s supremely comfortable and well balanced. The 60 Style Oval “C” neck profile is extremely comfortable and easy to play. It measures .790″ at the 1st fret and .930″ at the 12th fret.

With the Stratocaster design being considered by many to be the original workhorse guitar, the Custom Shop ’69 Stratocaster needs a pickup pairing that can deliver the classic Strat sound. With a trio of Josefina hand-wound Fat 60s Strat pickups it delivers all the sweeping, versatile tones you would expect from a Strat. Rich and smooth, it’s a premium Stratocaster tone.
