The Fender Custom Shop 1955 Stratocaster NOS in Olive Drab is a stunning fusion of vintage Fender spirit and Custom Shop refinement. Inspired by the golden era of Stratocaster design while enhanced with modern playability and hand-selected premium materials, this instrument delivers timeless tone and unmistakable character with every note.
Its striking Olive Drab lacquer finish gives the guitar a unique and understated sophistication, perfectly complementing the classic contours of the Stratocaster body. Crafted from two-piece select roasted alder, the body offers exceptional resonance, balance, and responsiveness, creating a lively acoustic foundation that translates beautifully through the pickups. The lacquer finish allows the wood to breathe naturally, adding warmth, openness, and vintage-inspired feel.
One of the most distinctive features of this Custom Shop build is its rosewood neck, shaped into a comfortable 57 Soft “V” profile that feels substantial yet incredibly inviting in the hand. Combined with the compound 9.5" to 12" fingerboard radius and narrow tall 6105 frets, the guitar effortlessly bridges vintage comfort with modern precision. Chords feel smooth and natural, while bends and lead work remain fluid and expressive all the way up the neck.
The pickup combination delivers everything players love about a great Stratocaster, only elevated through Custom Shop craftsmanship and hand-wound detail. The Texas Special bridge pickup provides bold attack, rich midrange bite, and unmistakable Fender snap, while the Fat 50’s middle and neck pickups offer warm lows, sparkling highs, and exceptional clarity. Every position on the 5-way switch reveals a different layer of character, from glassy cleans and woody blues tones to articulate overdrive and dynamic lead textures.
The RSD Strat bridge and vintage locking tuners provide excellent tuning stability and smooth performance, while nickel and chrome hardware paired with the black pickguard and aged white appointments complete the guitar’s effortlessly cool aesthetic. At 8 lbs 3 oz, the instrument feels balanced, resonant, and alive in the hands.
Elegant, soulful, and deeply expressive, the Fender Custom Shop 1955 Stratocaster NOS is a celebration of everything that made the Strat legendary. It combines vintage-inspired feel, modern performance, and master-built character into an instrument that looks unique, plays effortlessly, and sounds absolutely unforgettable.
