Since this Classic Series '50s Stratocaster from Fender in Daphne Blue is the closest thing to Carolina Blue (as featured on the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill logos), I went to the UNC Student Store and grabbed an assortment of decals in order to embellish the instrument.
Fender's Classic Series '50s Stratocaster sports a classic '50s vibe. In the era of diners and cars with fins, the Strat was king of solidbody electric guitars. Still is. The comfort-contoured alder body, the soft V tinted maple neck, the single-ply pickguard with three single-coil pickups, the vintage-style vibrato; it's all there and dressed in a gorgeous, period-correct nitrocellulose laquer finish. If smooth playability, eye-poppin' vintage looks, and legendary spank and sparkle are on your guitar gotta-have list, check out a Fender Classic Series '50s Stratocaster.
