This 2019 Fender CS '56 Strat is killer. The previous owner has a strong preference for stainless steel frets and had local legend lutier, Ken McNally, do a stainless steel refret on it. Like all of Ken's work, the job is impeccable. The guitar is currently fitted with an upgraded Callaham sustain block and tremolo arm, with the originals inlcuded in the case. Outsid eof the factory relic treatment, the guitar appears to be in excellent condition with no additional damage. We have given it a fresh set of Elxiri 10-46 and a setup and it plays exceptionally well. Includes is the original hard case and documentation, as pictured.
