Description & Specs

It’s the return of the Ancho Poblano Strat, with tone as large as Texas and updated sky-high features to boot. Ancho Poblano pickups are specially designed to deliver spicy expressive tones that get progressively hotter from neck to bridge. The middle and neck pickups are distinctively calibrated from string to string for enhanced solo work, while the flat-pole bridge pickup delivers a powerful musical punch. Each pickup is hand wound and potted with secret “Custom Shop sauce” to curb microphonics while preserving open-yet-focused tone.

The alder body is treated with a Relic lacquer finish to recreate years of playing wear. A quartersawn maple neck with 1950 Blackguard “U” profile yields a chunky baseball bat feel coveted by discerning players, while jumbo frets adorn the 9.5”-radius fingerboard. An eight-hole single-ply black phenolic pickguard is outfitted with a Fullerton-style aluminum control plate, with knurled chrome volume and tone knobs, five-way switch and vintage modified #2 wiring with tone-saver bleed. Other features include a Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and wing string tree with metal spacer. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.

We're right off the CTA Brown Line 'Paulina' Stop Just North of Belmont and just West of Ashland.

We’re all musicians here at Chicago Music Exchange and we want you to love the gear you get from us. We understand that sometimes you get a piece of gear that doesn’t work out for you. That’s why we offer an easy return policy to take the stress out of purchasing from us.

If you decide you'd like to return an item, please contact your Sales Rep, chat us, or give us a call.

If you placed your order on Amazon or eBay, we advise issuing the return request from your account on the platform of purchase - our Customer Service team will process a refund upon receipt of the item(s).

Most new items may be returned within 30 days of delivery and most vintage & used items may be returned within 3 days of delivery for a full refund, exchange, or store credit. Please pack the product safely for the journey back to us. If the product was shipped for free, the charge will be deducted from refund, unless the reason for the return is outside normal circumstances.

Please contact us as soon as possible if your order was received incorrectly, damaged, or defective. Most times we will give you an RA number (Return Authorization). Why is that number important? This will allow us to speed up the process of the return.

We reserve the right to charge a restocking fee based on the return condition. Some items we just can’t take back for returns, due to a one time function like strings or drums heads and other times it’s not sanitary to do so with microphones or harmonicas. If you aren’t sure if what you bought falls into a category like this, call us (773) 525-7773!

We strive to get your return processed quickly. Most of the time we have it done within two business days. Funds going back to credit cards usually takes two to four business days. CME strives to make sure all customers are happy with their experience. It is our priority to provide great service along with great gear. We always want to be helpful, and open to your feedback. Please let us know your thoughts! If you have any questions, we’re here for you!
