Fender / Custom Shop Masterbuilt John Cruz 1962 Relic Stratocaster Limited Edition Builder Select / 2006 / Sonic Blue / Guitar
|
Ohhhh yess! We just LOVE every John Cruz we see, and this one is no different! Folks, this is a super exclusive 2006 Fender Limited Edition Builder Select Masterbuilt John Cruz 1962 Relic Stratocaster. Long name, but pedigrees like this one can take a while to spell out! Limited Edition of 100 guitars.
Incredibly resonant -a scandal to listen to even when unplugged, makes all the other guitars sound muted-, a true master’s relic job, and overall unbeatable construction.
It also features custom wound John Cruz pickups, giving it that great vintage strat tone from the slab-board era. The sonic blue finish is an absolute beauty, and looks great with the mint green pickguard. It does have a stock S1 switching button, so it gives you so many more tonal possibilities.
Super dark Indian rosewood board, with slight tints of red. Stunning.
Includes Limited Edition hardcase, COA signed by John Cruz, accessories bag, case candy, strap and cable (not pictured). Almost no fretwear and no modifications of any kind.
They just don’t come any better than this.

Guitar Giraffe, Spain 
In the last few years, online sale for musical instruments has experienced an amazing growth, but has passed right through the pre-owned market (that is, in Spain), limiting it to specialised forums and private owners. This is why Guitar Giraffe was born, the first physical and online second hand guitar and amp store (we like to call it "pre-owned", since we see a big difference between both terms), with a clear commitment of giving new options to guitarists locally and worldwide. Pre-owned guitar stores, so common in UK and USA, were practically nonexistent in Spain. We’ve wanted to fill that empty space by becoming the first physical and online store in our country focused on pre-owned guitars and amps.
