The legendary relic artist John Cruz brings the 1961 Stratocaster to life in this beauty in black from 2009. It’s hard to closer to the real deal unless you’re prepared to search and search, and you’ve got an extra arm to pony up. Cruz relic’d the black finish for a well-used but cared-for look that feels right at home with the slightly worn through finish on the Maple neck. The tremolo is currently set up with John’s three spring system, and we have the standard spring system components to include with the G&G case. Weighs in at 7lbs 10oz, this ’61 Strat from 2009 is easy on the hands (ditto for the 1 5/8” nut and 2 1/8” saddle spacing).
Fender relic’d to perfection by John Cruz—worth it.

I have been a Stratocaster player since my teenage years, and this is one of the best feeling Strats I’ve ever held. The strings seem to bend themselves, and the tone has a classic sound we all have come to love. This is proof that John Cruz is one of the best Strat makers. | Scale Length | 25.5000 in |
