Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
Weight: 10.75 lbs.
It's always a special experience to be able to come across such a rare and well-built instrument here in the shop. Built by master builder Jason Smith, this guitar has a fluidity to it that is hard to match. Tonally, the guitar is lively and resonant, just as you'd expect from such a high quality instrument. Truly a joy to play!
From Fender
Since 1987, the Fender Custom Shop has been a "dream factory," producing guitars that are to playing what Ferraris are to driving. The skilled craftsmen in Fender's Corona, Calif., Custom Shop are known worldwide for their artistry in making guitars that range from the fine to the fantastic. Whether it's building a new custom instrument from the ground up or modifying an existing one, their best is the best.
Fender Custom Shop instruments have been crafted for and with the input of the world's finest players-names like Clapton, Beck, Burton, Cray, Gilmour, Townshend and Vaughan, to name just a few. One could be yours.
