1966 Closet Classic Relic Stratocaster  
 
Limited Run of 200. Weighs 7.90 lbs., Firemist Silver Metallic (this color is no longer available), '65 Neck Profile with Laminate Maple Fretboard, 2- Piece Alder Body, '65 "C" Shape Neck with 9.5" Radius, 1.650” nut width, 25.5 scale length, Nitro Lacquer Relic Finish, Oversized Headstock, '65 Vintage Pickups (Reverse Wound/Reverse Polarity Middle Pickup), 5-way Switch, Vintage Tremolo, Original Limited Edition Fender Custom Shop Case and Certificate of Authenticity. It's seen very little playing time and has zero fret-wear. To me the relic work is perfect for those who prefer a more authentic aged relic'd guitar...this beauty has some finish checking, buckle rash, little discoloration and mild hardware oxidation-no rust. No issues, 100% Original. This is a very collectible guitar. In day light this guitar looks dark grey, at night it looks more silver ( photo # 2 is closest to true color). If you can find one of these in a music shop, they will be asking over $3000. for this model. Now is your chance for a great deal. Thanks for looking.Below is a link to Fenders web site and an email from Fender on this guitar ;
