We capture the energy and essence of their respective eras with iconic fingerboard radii and period-correct plastics, matched headstocks and slab fingerboards, classic finishes and not-so-classic colorways. But that’s just the beginning of what makes our Fender Custom Shop guitars so special. We take customization a step further with rift sawn necks for added resonance and expanded control sets for tonal versatility, and every “Chicago Special” Fender Custom Shop guitar features our own custom Chicago Special pickups, designed in conjunction with Fender Custom Shop Vice President of Product Development Mike Lewis.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Chicago Special\" Strat pickups: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalibrated set - bridge to neck - for balanced output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach pickup as custom AlNiCo 5 magnet stagger for optimum output balance string-to-string 42 gauge enamel wire for round highs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePotted in shellac for open wide range frequency response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 9237101512\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eSerial Number:\u003c\/b\u003e R122143\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eFinish Package:\u003c\/b\u003e Journeyman\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eCase:\u003c\/b\u003e Fender Custom Shop Brown \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 7 lbs 14.2 oz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cb\u003eBody Wood:\u003c\/b\u003e 2-Piece Alder Body\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eBody Color:\u003c\/b\u003e Lake Placid Blue\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eBody Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e Nitro Lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eSort for Lightweight:\u003c\/b\u003e Yes\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eBody Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e Super Aged Lake Placid Blue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cb\u003eHardware Plating:\u003c\/b\u003e Chrome\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eBridge Assembly:\u003c\/b\u003e American Vintage Strat Relic\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eOutput Assembly:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage Strat Relic\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eControl Assembly:\u003c\/b\u003e Strat 1\/2 Blender\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eNeck Plate:\u003c\/b\u003e R Serial Vintage Relic\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eBack Plate \u0026amp;
