I own a ROADWORN 60 strat two color sunburst, Texmex pickup in the Neck, Pure vintage Toneriders in Middle and bridge, NYXL strings, and through my TWIN REVERB, and my BLUES DELUXE REVERB with an Eminence, The Wizard, sounds INCREDIBLE, Wth a total cost of about 1000 dollars I´m very very happy with this, sounding like a 70 Grand vintage Strat., UPGRADE is the answer. Greetings from Concepcion , Biobio Region , Chile, Southamerica.
When I watch these videos, they really make me feel good about myself. I have a 61 rerelease Fender Strat that I bought new, for 10% off that is the stuff dreams are made of. I feel like it’s quite a bargain, particularly when compared to the George Harrison 61 Rocky, that looks like it has been vandalized by a group of delinquent Kindergarten students. $2K was a sacrifice, but money well spent in the end. 24/7 access to the coolest guitar I ever put my hands on. I’m just glad it wasn’t $20K.
waiting for the Mexican version later on probably in 1-2 years. its coming but wort the wait. stated as the most expensive Mexican Fender ever made with closely monitored by Fender Custom Shop.
Snake oil. I've owned a LOT of CS Strats and the more recent ones have been really disappointing. Taken as an independent manufacturer, Fender's Custom Shop is the second largest maker of guitars in the US. There's nothing 'boutique' going on here. If you must have something beaten-up so as to reflect some unearned credibility on you, go play a bunch of early 70s CBS Strats and pick the one that feels right. Later ones were often dogs but there are still some gems that can be had for a lot less than an overpriced CS guitar.
These guitars aren't for the likes of you and me. They are NOT gonna get played as they are for investment only. Anyone who can afford this guitar will have other (prob really nice) guitars to play. They'll bring another JF signature out probably around 2 or 3K. Look at how many Peter Green models there are. One for every price point.

Big thanks for watching👍
Only thing you can buy a vintage Stratocaster for that price i didn’t John would let fender charging price 😅
@@jasonbull3050 exactly mate! Thanks for watching 👍
Don’t care for fender I’m a Gibson guy but jf is awsome . I’ll take this anytime💯❤
Nice one mate- it is an awesome looking signature to be fair-cheers for watching!
I am a Fender guy, but I have a place in my heart, and collection for Gibsons. Fantastic instruments. I do play mine often. Rock on 🎸.
Definitely one I'd love to have! This and the Gretch White Falcon.
Yes mate! That White Falcon looks so good!👍
Fender Custom Shock
Haha love it! Cheers for watching 👍
If you are gonna have a sunburst Fender, this is 🔥
@@munsonguitars Absolutely, it looks spot on!👍
I get the link to John Frusciante, and that's cool, but you can get a genuine '62 Strat for that kind of money.
Exactly mate! Cheers for watching👍

Cheers man, keen to see what they come out with down the line!
Thanks for watching!👍
Put all that 20 grand into buying some great albums, work on your ear/hand work on guitar, and you will play like John!
Absolutely mate - I like this idea! Thanks for watching👍
Sold out at Anderton's already. 18.6 grand. No, no, no... That's just stupid IMO.
Mental mate - hopefully they'll release a version where I won't need to consider re-mortgaging my house 😆 Cheers for watching!

@@bm7760 Thanks for watching and interesting perspective - what are the best CS strats that you've played out of interest?
