I am gasing for a custom shop 70's strat in black, natural or blonde finish with the big headstock with the bullet truss rod and a maple neck. Why hasn't the custom shop come out with more of this era, because I am starting to get tired of the 50's thru the 60's models. I would love to have Abby pickups on it in NOS. :D

The Custom Shop will build whatever you order, but keep in mind the CBS era has a less than stellar reputation, so there is probably not much of a demand. Plus you can find '70s strats around for about the same price as a new CS.

Last time I went to GC they had a 70's reissue so I picked it up and compared to my 70's Strat. I was not really impressed with the neck, it was not as thin and had larger radius than mine. I like the thin, small radius and glossy necks of that era too so I didnt bother plugin. As said above, for 2k you can find a 70's Strat.
