When I turned the month of my CS wall calendar, I see this
beautiful Strat photo, but it's called a "Custom Sparkle Telecaster"
and was wondering if a typo on my issue as I see nothing that
hints of anything Telecaster.


The verbage:

"Built by: Senior Master Builder: Todd Krause
This guitar features birds-eye maple and a rosewood neck,
with gold hardware and custom electronics. The parts are all
hand machined and polished to an ultra-high gloss. The artwork
is a combination of gold leaf and candy colors with subtle flames."

Okay, just found the answer and it is a typo.

The back cover says "Custom Tribal Stratocaster".

What a gorgeous guitar!!!

I'm afraid you haven't got a unique and collectable edition there...

Mine's the same! :)

And here's a sibling of it, another Todd Krause masterbuilt - http://www.thomann.de/ro/fender_candy_r ... _strat.htm.
Gee, where's that loto win when you need it?
On the other hand, do you know what they mean by Jeff Beck pickups in the description?
As far as I know, JB models have "Dual-Coil Ceramic Noiseless" pickups, both the CS model and the Artist series one.
