FENDER "Custom Shop Reissue 1959 Stratocaster Heavy Relic Candy Apple Red"

Resonant Lightweight Woods

A guitar is only as good as the wood it’s built from which is why we requested specifically chosen lightweight Ash for these guitars. They’ve also got single-piece, quartersawn Maple necks to ensure you get that classic Strat feel and more importantly, the brilliant, clear tonal response. The fretboard is the warmer sounding Rosewood - it's also the laminate-style fretboard rather than the veneer which appeared in the 60s.

The body finish is a standard relic though the neck has a heavy relic finish for that beautiful worn-in feel with the comfortable feeling rolled fret edges.

The John English 59 Neck

The neck is a 59 transition shape with an interesting story. John English (The legendary Fender Custom Shop Master builder) carved a neck based on a late 1959 neck. This neck feels slightly chunkier than a modern neck but not as fat as a 54 and we fell in love with it. This neck is so rarely used that it doesn't even have a part number from the Fender Custom Shop!

It's got the modern 9.5” radius that makes it still feel like a breeze to play and the frets are narrow and tall. This means you’ll never struggle with those big bends, even if you prefer to use heavier strings.

Mischief Maker Pickups

The Mischief Maker pickups were chosen for these Custom Shop Strats because they've been our favourites to come out of the Fender Custom Shop in the last few years. They're hot and clear with a bell-like top-end but without ever sounding shrill. The ultimate Strat Pickup set? They may well be that. 

You've got a Texas Special in the Bridge for a bit of twang and attack. And the 65 middle pickup and 69 neck pickup mellow each other beautifully - especially in the holy grail 2nd position where you get those spanky SRV-esque tones.

Pamelina H. and Evan

No one knows the business better than her son, Evan. He's been by her side as an assistant since his days in high school.

Pamelina has worked as a free-lance artist all of her life, including all the years spent working with Fender, Ibanez and others.
She remained steadfast in her desire to work at home and raise her son. Now her son is an adult and by her side as a partner in her
ever-growing business.

Pamelina has fostered strong relationships with luthiers all over the world and enjoys collaborating with them all. She works with the best in the business to supply musical instruments that are of value in playability and collectibility.

The custom guitar world is relatively small and can be considered a family that is spread out through the far corners of the globe. Pamelina is very proud to be a part of this family.

About Us

A Family Business

Pamelina H. comes from a long line of artists and has been painting and drawing for as long as she can remember. Her first illustration was published in the fan pages of Vampirella Magazine when she was only 10. Inspired and encouraged, she set her sights on becoming a commercial artist.

At the age of 13 she became a professional, earning money through embroidery, selling to a local boutique in Carmel, CA. At 17, she had her first paid illustrations under her belt with Gallery and Hooker Magazines.

Soon after, she moved to Europe and left her mark on the town of Arnhem in the Netherlands. She participated in several group art shows, including one at the RAI in Amsterdam and had a one-woman show.

She's worked within the music industry since the mid-80's by creating artwork for cds, tour merchandise, concert laminates and charity giveaways. She's also painted musical instruments for people like Jennifer Lopez, Babyface, Davey Johnstone, Motley Crue, Mick Fleetwood, Sheila E., Soundgarden and many others.

To date, she's painted over 2000 guitars for Fender, Gibson, Ibanez, Dean, B.C. Rich and others. She's painted murals on motorcycles, helmets and cars for Shaquille O'Neal, Vince Neil, Brent Stait and many fine men & women of the police and fire department, from Los Angeles to New York.

Her original work's been published in calendar form, as posters, puzzles, on body jewelry and of course, t-shirts.

She's currently selling prints and original artwork at conventions, galleries and art shows across the country and around the world. And if you don't blink, you'll see her poster, 400 Orgasms, in the greatest movies of all time, Phantoms.

She's been the subject of many articles in magazines ranging from Guitar Player's Guide to Tattoo Savage to America West's in-flight magazine.

FENDER "Custom Shop Limited Roasted Poblano Stratocaster Heavy Relic Azteca Gold Over Three Tone Sunburst" LIMITED EDITION

 The Fender Stratocaster is probably the most iconic guitar ever produced and the Fender Custom Shop Poblano Stratocaster is a fitting addition to this legendary line.

A Roasted Alder body is finished in a cracking Faded Aged Aztec Gold over 3-Tone Sunburst finish. Authentically aged, this finish will wear beautifully with time and develop its own character even further. It also allows the natural resonance of the body to sing and sustain much more effectively compared with other finishes.

The Quartersawn Roasted Maple neck has a smooth finish and a 59 Large C profile. This feel is a real favourite with vintage guitar fans and gives you a real nice grip and playing experience. 21 jumbo frets with rolled edges and a 9.5" radius make this a guitar equipped for every situation.

The defining feature is the signature Ancho Poblano singlecoil pickups, getting progressively hotter from neck to bridge, they are uniquely calibrated and offer a distinct tonal flavour. Overwound by hand they are the holy grail of single coils.
