⚌No Longer Available‼ Fender HLE 57 Stratocaster Gold LTD #382 of 500, 1989

⚌No Longer Available‼ Fender HLE 57 Stratocaster Gold LTD #382 of 500, 1989

The first limited edition model from the Custom Shop, the Fender HLE Gold 57 Stratocaster re-creates the guitar built in 1957 for Homer Haynes, one of the stars of Country comedy duo Homer and Jethro. This is not entirely a slavish copy of a 1957 model, as the center pickup is RW/RP (reverse wound, reverse polarity) to provide hum-cancelling in positions 2 and 4 of the 5-way switch.
