AMAZING Guitar !!

Love the Neck, the Frets and FB. It's really a close clone of an actual '57... right down to the Vintage pups and .1uf Capacitor.

Only 46 FSR Ltd. Ed.CAR '57s were produced.

Mine has a Custom Shop Body replaced under warranty and fully documented, making mine one-of- one.

This one's coming in the Box with me when I go !! :wink:

Well done you !! :D

Enjoy one of the finest instruments Fender produced. I've had Techs at Fender tell me that it is a lot nicer than many of the Custom Shop Stratocasters they've seen.

cheers!

This guitar deserves a shortened whammy and an EMG DG20 pickup set - though it sounds and plays great in its stock configuration with the '57/'62s.

Not sure if you're a David Gilmour/Pink Floyd fan. :|

Totally agree...I am a huge fan of DG...I am starting to search EMG DG20 set :) on Ebay ....

By the way..My ancestors are from Crete... I have a friend in Chios..This summer I had a great holiday in Chios...

Also I wish Merry Christmas to all Christian friends in the forum...

That'd be like painting a Moustache on the Mona Lisa !

Fender TRULY hit this one out of the Park in every way !!

If you're lucky enough to score one of these, it'd be sacrilege to alter the equation even 1% !

Like finding one of Buddy Holly's 4 lost '56 Stratocasters and painting it Lake Placid Blue !! :( :( :(

cheers!
