This Fender American Ultra Stratocaster in Cobra Blue just became my new favourite Strat! Extremely well made and carrying a number of very practical professional features, this guitar is a joy to play. The medium-jumbo fretwire is easy to grip and the rolled fingerboard edges and contoured heel add to the guitar’s comfort.

This Fender CS 1956 Stratocaster was built at the Corona California plant and unlike the ‘Relic’ versions is the New Old Stock – NOS – form. Introduced in 1954 as Leo Fender’s third major instrument design after the Telecaster and Precision Bass, the Stratocaster has become one of the most used models.
Here from 2006, an Ernie Ball MusicMan Axis in Trans Red top black back and oiled Maple neck, with stock Floyd Rose! The Ernie Ball MusicMan Axis has been one of the go-to rock guitars for many years. Very well built with straight-ahead appointments and well-considered ergonomics, this model works very well. It plays well, is very comfortable, and sounds great.
