Fender Custom Shop 2018 MBS Michael Landau 1963 Stratocaster Relic Left Handed by Jason Smith

This is the 'Michael Landau 1963 Stratocaster Relic', crafted by master builder Jason Smith.

This rare left-handed model features hand-wound 'Fat 50s' pickups made by Josefina Campos.

The body has some fine scuffs that are not part of the relic finish. The pickguard is scratched and blackened, and the metal hardware shows slight signs of corrosion.

The low frets show minimal wear with plain strings, but over 80% of the frets remain intact and there are no issues with the neck or truss rod.

The control knobs have been replaced and the certificate of authenticity is missing.
