Authentic replica of Michael Landau's 1968 vintage Strat, including case and certificate
The
Fender Michael Landau 1968 Relic Stratocaster 3-Color Sunburst

Following the historical guidelines, this electric guitar features a light alder body and a bolt-on maple neck with a "Round-Laminated" rosewood fretboard and a "Custom C" profile for easy handling. Three Fender Custom Shop Fat '50s single coils provide the guitar amp with expressive vintage sounds that blend in with almost any style of music. The traditional hardware configuration with a 6-saddle synchronized tremolo and precise vintage-style tuners completes the Fender Michael Landau 1968 Relic Stratocaster 3-Color Sunburst.

The body made of light alder is painted with an artificially aged nitrocellulose finish.
Selected woods in nitrocellulose finish
For the construction of the Fender Michael Landau 1968 Relic Stratocaster, the Fender Custom Shop uses only carefully selected woods that guarantee a lively sound and low weight of the electric guitar. Accordingly, the
body is made of light alder
, while the
bolt-on maple neck
carries the
large headstock
of the CBS era and the historically correct
"Round-Laminated" rosewood fretboard
glued to the radius specified by the neck. Here the comfortable
"Custom C"
profile
and the
7.25" vintage fretboard radius
promise comfortable playing. Another absolute highlight is the
artificially aged nitro finish
, which recreates the look and feel of a perfectly played-in vintage original..
Three Fender Custom Shop Fat '50s single coils promise authentic vintage sounds coming from your guitar amp.
Custom Shop Fat '50s pickups for versatile vintage sounds
The Fender Michael Landau 1968 Relic Stratocaster 3-Color Sunburst features
three Fat '50s single coils
wound in the hallowed halls of the Fender
Custom Shop
. Equipped with
Alnico V magnets
and the historically correct
Formvar wire
, these pickups deliver powerful vintage sounds with fat basses, vocal midrange and the typical clarity in the trebles. The lively dynamic response of the single-coil pickups supports expressive electric guitar playing in a wide range of styles between pop, rock and blues. The pickups are controlled via a subtly modified
5-way circuit
whose first tone control acts on the neck and middle pickups, while the second tone control determines the treble spectrum of the bridge pickup.
In addition to the master's printed signature, the headstock of the 1968 Fender Michael Landau Relic Strat carries six vintage-style tuners.
High quality hardware in vintage style
High-quality and reliable hardware in authentic vintage style completes the Fender Michael Landau 1968 Relic Stratocaster 3-Color Sunburst. Of course the proven
Fender Synchronized Tremolo
with string saddles made of bent sheet steel serves as the bridge of this guitar. Thanks to its smooth handling, it enhances melodies and chords with shimmering vibratos. Behind the
bone nut
, the classic
large Fender headstock
features
six vintage-style tuners
for precise and stable tuning of this electric guitar.
