Thank you always Landon for your videos I enjoy them greatly immensely I don't know why but I'm never able to find a place to comments I can't find that button and click it and maybe custom blinds I never had a problem in the past though I just wish though that you would not like the weights and things like that that you would actually say these things. And you have a lot of subscribers but you have a great channel but I wish you would you know say some of these aspects and stuff like that and not just saying look it's right here you can see it because I can't be the only blind person that watches your videos well listens to them LOL that has to be other people that are we the blind do I have really bad division that can't see what you say look you can see it here because we don't see LOL I'll just some food for thought or some words with the lot or some vision for thought though however you want to put a thank you anyway it wouldn't matter what you do thank you your videos are great and I do enjoy listening to that sincerely bother blind picture of guitars just wish I can figure out this comment and saying so I wouldn't have to leave replyp sincerely Bob the blind bedroom guitarist blind doesn't
I hate relic guitars!! I've hated them since the first time I ever saw them. They ruined that guitar by burning the neck. The trussrod is for keeping the neck straight. That brown colour never comes out and always looks like boxwood and not maple. Some of these features are nice but not needed by me.
cheers
Hey Landon! I should clarify- I hate reliced guitars but nos is great. To me, nos guitars look like a well loved and gracefully aged instrument whereas a reliced guitars look like abused and battered pieces of shit. I just can’t understand why anyone would pay new guitar money for something that looks like shit - but new old stock looks like something that’s been loved and cared for - your guitar is absolutely beautiful! So NOS, yes! Reliced, HELL NO!
Very happy for you. Your wit and down-to-earth approachability earned this.
cheers!
Congratulations Landon. That is an exceptional guitar. Well deserved. Enjoy it forever.
thanks Ken!
Our humble little tele builder has gone all upscale on us.
For real lol,
I’m jealous
Now that is one handsome Strat😮 The custom shop should do more of these exquisite NOS’s. The relics are fine but these are truly artisanal. And what phenomenal sounds. Congrats to Landon! Use it in good health.
cheers!
Wow, congratulations on landing that awesome guitar. You have earned it.
hey thanks!
That Strat is spectacular! As far as relics go, I have done a total 180 on them over the past couple years. I bought old guitars and made them look new. Actually, I thought relic’d guitars were for posers. Then I thought, “Why should I care WHY somebody else likes their guitar?” Then I heard the explanations about how relic’d guitars FEEL. That sold me. Plus, it’s a way to.own a great guitar without the fear of playing it hard. Scratches and dings? Who cares?
Now that is one weepingly beautiful guitar. I'm actually glad that it's in your hands, not mine, as you'll get far, far more out of it than I ever could. Congratulations, sir.
Rock on!
man i am so happy for you!. i love those mineral streaks on the back of the headstock. thats character!
🎸👍
Congrats dude, beautiful guitar and tones. Not a factory relic fan myself but when it’s genuine it tells a story. Love the channel and videos, keep up the great work and humor!
cheers!
Interesting how they went for a 11 inch radius instead of just good ol' number 12 inch. Still, much better than 9.5 or the 7.25 string chocker radii (radiuses). Beautiful guitar there.
I’m 62. I’m relic’d, and I smell.
😱😝
Jajaja 😆🤣 Good one
😎🎸✌🏽🕊✈️🦯✝️🎼💙
Congrats Landon, that is a great catch. Absolutely Gorgeous!! 😮
I don’t like relic’ed guitars but I don’t judge anyone who does. There is room for everyone!
That blue makes me misty eyed- so pretty. Have a great time with the new strat!
I got a used NOS GT11 for about $1000 less than new, and it ticks every box down to my favorite finish: Inca silver.
Nice! Good deal
Why does that tele look so weird?
My first Mexican Tele ruined me. It fell off the wall hanger and hit me in the head. Ever since then I've only been able to play Ed Sheeran.
Also...who's Ed Sheeran?
Wow, that is one good looking strat. Congrats. Love that color too. Sounds great.
Congrats Landon! What a beauty!!! Well deserved and can't wait to see some comparisons with your other Strats!
I only have the '79 left.
@@landonbailey wow! Now you mention it i do remember you selling the japanese one! That's actually great! No point just accumulating stuff. Good to whittle it down to those special ones that mean a lot!
I sold it locally and didn't advertise it on here :)
That is one of the most gorgeous blue[s] guitars I've seen. One of the nice things about a vintage nitro finish is how you can see it sink into the grain, such as in the light reflection at 5:50.
👍🎸
Working on scoring one in Oly White as I am now searching for videos (sound samples).. thx 2 u for putting this one together, gorgeous Strat 👍🏽
hey cool! it's also featured in many other videos including one I just released about the PRS HDXR
@@landonbailey - I’ll check it out, thx
Love those dots by the way
Great video Landon, I’ve been watching you since you started your channel, what a humble and wonderful human being you are the world needs more people like you in it Bro, Congratulations on the custom shop strat.
hey thanks Ricky! appreciate that
I got my dream Strat........in 1996. Bought a used 93 deluxe plus after reading 1 of those guitar magazines stating this model is as close as you'll find from the factory. Am doing the relic thing 1 day at a time. In fact 1 of my outside gigs. I sent the guitar against the amp on blacktop. Got some tiny gouges from the asphalt. Just lightly sanded them a little smoother the other day. Not gone but not as heavy. It's got a butt ugly yellow color (vintage blonde) that I really didn't like from the time I picked it up at G C. But it has magic that keeps me playing a lot. And it sounds do good. In fact when I shopped for this next to it was a pretty blue same model but rosewood fretboard. Didn't feel it in this pretty guitar like I felt in the yellow 1. So if color is your thing don't forget a real 30 yrs down the road ,is that color gonna make you a better player? L Sensors, F Floyd Rose bridge, roller nut, locking tuners, TBX knob. Never changed a thing except add the Hipshot Tremsetter and crank the bridge to whammy up and down. 27 yrs ago and haven't touch an adjustment yet. Needs fret work now but 1st problem in all these yrs. When the magazine said "As close to custom shop as you will get " . Guess I gotta believe today. Also picked up a L P studio for $800 10 yrs ago. I did a lot of changes to this 1 based on what's done to my Strat. Kluson locking tuners. Tusc XL nut, Tonespro locking bridge, alum tailpiece, CTS 500k pots, Garrett cloth wiring, 50's wiring style, Switchcraft switch and jack. Did some shielding inside so with 496/500 pups it's a little quieter. Not much. Definitely wilder than the Strat.
That's.a really amazing looking strat! love that neck, slab board clay dots over roasted flame is amazing
And the mint green guard almost looks golden
I haven't taken the plastic off the pickguard :)
Custom shop fender with 22 frets.... I can die peacefully
AND THE TRUSS ROD ADJUSTER AT THE HEADSTOCK UGH YES 😭
Damn Landon it's A BEAUTY
Congratulations Lando !!! That is one beautiful Strat !!!
thanks!
@@landonbailey You are very welcome !
Congratulations Landon! Beautiful Strat!
thanks Don!
Really happy for you man. I’m still chasing the dream but hopefully will get there someday 🤞🏻
That is one sweet looking and sounding guitar. (And I am a Gibson/Epiphone LP fan. ) There is something very special about getting “ The Guitar”. I hope you Play guitar and have fun with that sweet CS Strat for years to come. Congrats Landon.
thanks!
Congratulations on the gorgeous strat! That is a truly beautiful guitar!
Sweet GT11! New Old Stock (NOS Fender) or Vintage Original Spec (VOS Gibson) light relicing isn't too destructive, though it's not for me. But heavy relicing a high end guitar guitar seems like buying a new Aventador then taking a blow torch to it. It doesn't make it look old, just makes it look ruined.
I hate relic guitars. Why should I buy a pre fucked up guitar?
Nice one! And no, I don’t want my new anything to look old..
Aha, see, they Can make a guitar without a string tree! Definitely one of the best looking and sounding guitars you've had on the channel. Nice!
I would assume they are using staggered tuners to compensate but, if diy modders have been able to do it for decades then yeah, fender is late for their own party it seems 😂
Great video! Gorgeous guitar.
I like the color of the fretboard, looks like ebony but is CITES (!, I'm intrigued) RW (rosewood, I guess), with a finish. Yes, I can read Custom Shop Specs.
Man I’ve played numerous custom shops and finish aside I don’t see any value advantages over the American vintage core line. Glad your inspired though looks great
you can't use the word value and custom shop together 😝
Congratulations! Can you please do comparison video between this CS and MIJ Heritage strat
thanks! I sold the Heritage model to buy other gear
WOW! That is beautiful. Congrats!!! Back in the day, I really wanted a car that exact color. Love the combination with the hue of the roasted maple neck, those clay dots, that pickguard, everything... just WOW. That official title is really a mouthful though. Can we get an acronym???
GT11 :)
Dam I miss woodwind and brasswind.... they were the goats and better then sweetwater in their days, and my dad worked there and was one of the most goated salesman there
Sadly the ceo was bad with money and they had to close down completely, I miss the 2000s
Great to see a non heavy relic CS.
Finally!!! You've been killing me with those teaser pics. I bought my American Ultra back in January and I haven't touched any of my other guitars since.
qh nice! I still haven't tried an Ultra
Congrats Landon: beautiful looking & sounding guitar ! Very inspiring… I’ve built myself a similar one with an HSS format. Enjoy & good luck for your channel !
Fender really needs to hop on the bandwagon with their custom shops. Give us some darn hss options!
Sweet Strat Landon!
Make sure you put the trem Springs straight. I can't believe the Fender Custom Shop did that. When they are straight the pressure is equal on all 3 springs.
✌💀👍🇺🇸🇨🇦
I'm just going to leave it. I actually decked the trem, it was floating.
The first relic guitar i ever saw was at the Lawndale Guitar Center in LA in the early nineties.The guitar had a fake cigarette burn on the headstock. I called out the salesman, and he GCsplained to me that I didn't know shit about guitars.
Wow...even has Ron Thorn's signature. My favorite CS master builder.
oh Canada
Got my first Custom Shop and it is an amazing guitar! Good for you, great looking and sounding guitar!
congrats! what did you get?
Congrats! I would pick exactly the same. No bling except the baddest flame in the maple neck.
I wish we had a Sweetwater here in the UK!
I don't think they even have sweet water at Sweetwater!
Talk about disappointing, order a Custom Shop guitar and it comes with the Fender logo sticker slapped on the head.
?
@@landonbaileywe can clearly make out the outline of the “Fender” logo sticker whether on or under the lacquer on the head. It’s very disappointing that Fender would use a sticker on such an expensive guitar instead of other, cleaner methods.
Regarding reliced guitars, I don´t like them. I do, however, absolutely love that strat of yours. That´s how Fender should be making them!
Congrats on the Strat! That’s a lifetime guitar right there
My guitar came in a cardboard box,wrapped in plastic and Styrofoam....😔
Well, luckily the shipping method and the case don’t make the guitar!
Take that 1.65 nut width back to the 60's. Would be nice if the custom shop would produce more with the 1.687 but width.
DANG! That is one sweet neck. Regarding relics - I agree. I won't yuck your yum. I prefer non-relics. I like new and find beauty in perfection. That being said, all my guitars get a relic scratch or dent within an hour of first jam... Great guitar Landon. Love the channel!
cheers!
That's where I am getting with the Strats I have the Bridge pickup really needs to be jumpered & wired to a tone pot. For a Strat to have 3 pickups, 5 positions & then be short a Volume knob (like a LP has) & have tone control for every pickup selection except the Bridge is the lack of control that so many other guitars have for blending tones. Since the more modern pickup selector switches are PCB boards, how hard would it be to add a jumper like a computer motherboard has ?
A very nice guitar indeed!! So happy for you, Landon.
What a beautiful guitar, congrats man. Well earned.
Oh the smell is real!!! I have pro ll which i have barely played because everytime i open the case thr smell hits me and i dont want it to fade. I know it's dumb but it smells soooo good
The scent is from the case manufacturer. They treat it with a vanilla bean perfume to mask the scent of the hide glue, which smells horrible until it dries all the way. Nitro lacquer tends to absorb scents far better than poly. If the scent wears off, lightly spray a pump of Chemical Bros vanilla room freshener (which is what I believe is used in the cases) into the accessories compartment to recharge the scent. Do that maybe twice a year and you’ll never lose that scent.
thanks!
Great axe - Congrats!!
I have Postmodern CS strat with compound radious fretboard and Ancho Poblano PUs. It also has quarter sawn neck - a big must for me! Cheers!
Hi Sweetwater, can someone please accidentally drop any level of Fender guitar, maybe use it as an oar or at least get it halfway muddy?....cuz I'd happily take it in and LOVE it! :) .....wonderful stuff Landon, it sounds SO good!
If people spent as much time playing their guitars as the do whining about other peoples, relic guitars, they might actually be able to play guitar.
I’m truly am happy for you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 All Telecaster players should have a Stratocaster or two. As all Stratocaster players should have a bunch of Telecasters. Lol
Reliced guitars? NO!
what about liced?
Wow the tiger stripe/fiddleback on the neck is truly superb…combined with the blue it is truly stunning…..and sounds amazing too 👌
Damn that fiesta red relic with the black under is looking amazing
Hey Landon, I said the same thing after I got each of my Custom Shops (3 Fenders and 1 Gibson). They are all sold now. You will find the Squier magic again eventually but this time YOU WILL KNOW how sweet some of them can be. Just sayin' man.
Nitro guitars do smell noice
Beauty of a Strat for sure
“ my Guitar has constant gas”
6:49 thought you were gonna play fucking Tennessee Whiskey I was gonna be so pissed. Sick axe
Airbag - Radiohead
In my case, if I relic the guitar it's fine. But buying a relic'ed guirar on in general relic'ing on purpose.. I don't love it
Beautiful guitar !
7 years ago my wife bought me a computer so that I could watch guitar review videos That's an amazing coincidence !
Wow, Landon! Your channel must be "blowing up"! Congratulations sir!!
it blew up so many times!
@Landon Bailey LOL, yes, I've seen the explosions!
Great guitar, congratulations, you deserve it. I would like a Custom shop guitar, but the nearest I’m likely to get is I have the same case. Mine smells like a ‘61 Vintage 2.
Oooo - is this the next giveaway guitar, @landonbailey ??
😱
@@landonbailey I'm not hearing a no........ 😉
That neck is gorgeous! I actually don't mind relic guitars, especially the feel of a relic neck. It would have been a shame to relic that neck........the mint green guard looks surprisingly good on that blue. Sweet axe!
it's insane!
@@landonbaileylooks like something you'd see on a p.r.s. wood library piece!
Nice! And it's blue! How blue? As blue as blue can get! And then some! I'd say! As blue as the sky blue! If the sky was a darker blue! It's more like a cobalt blue! But different! You know, blue! It's blue! Nice! Landon!! Congrats! On your blue strat! Thanks! And it's blue too!😊
It's the nitro finish. It has that vanilla like smell. My Gibson Firebird and its case also have it. Love it
Love the colour and that pick-guard uff not quite the mint green but looks amazing.
That paint job and color is unreal!
it looks like that in person. nuts!
Nice axe! I didn't see stainless steel frets listed in the specs, was that an option?
For me paying extra for something I will be doing myself over time for free is ridiculous. The first ding always hurts but it is inevitable unless your guitar is a closet queen.
Wow. That's so awesome you got to keep the guitar, too! Hit me up, Sweetwater. I want that GT Telecaster! 😉🎸
Nice one Landon 🎉 Can't think of anyone more Canadian that deserves it😊
cheers!
No doubt aboot that, eh? 🦫
What a beauty! Way beyond what I can get, but really cool to get an indepth look.
Such a nice guitar, great color!
As as I have only now a busker as I have not gigged with a band since the Pandemic, I am still just a little school math teacher and cannot spend this much on one guitar. In 2006 I spent $1,700 for an American deluxe with the white pearl coat. 2006 . This year after 14 years I switch to the noiseless for version pickups.. S-1 switch still good option.
I actually have a friend who works at sweetwater that ask me to come in and bring my Fraser guitars and I did a comparison with my Frasers and a GT11 I really liked the GT 11 but my Frasers sounded better I lol see if I can find it and share it with you those necks are just sick!!
she💃 looks nice ,sounds nice -congrats - have fun and be carefull with her nitro finish has the tendency to relic itself🥰and lay your other modells beside - no chance - she´s got handwired singel coils and The Wiring (Fat50Strat half Blender) that is the coolest for a Strat
That is simply a stunning looking guitar. That is sweet.
Wow. Congrats, you must be making a nice impact on Sweetwater. I love using them.
Darn man you you keep breaking out just better and better on us first it was the that bad ass tele yesterday and now this fine wine strat on us today. Darn you are a lucky man you deserve it though,I am sure it will make a fine addition to your other fenders I AM GLAD FOR YOU MAN. MAYTHEY BE MANY MORE TO COME.
Relics to me are like special effects in movies. I don't mind if they're not obvious.
U didn’t mentioned the truss rod adjustment at headstock instead that the heel. It’s pretty uncommon for an hi-end custom shop, and literally divide people‘s opinion. How do u feel about it? What do u think about it?
It doesn’t bother me. I rarely do truss rod adjustments
Congratulations on attaining a terrific piece. 👏
That is a Wow Strat yes. Agreed it needs to feel and sound great then a few minor relics don't matter to me either. Look at Derrick Trucks SG for example of a brilliant guit and many others
If relicing looks dirty, like there's old motor oil on the wood, I don't like it.
I would like this guitar to show the ash wood.
Non dirty relicing!
Congrats man! Absolutely stunning! Were you scared to play it knowing what it costs?? I think I'd be a little apprehensive 😜 Now get a guitar from Wildwood Custom and compare the two. Then we can have a definitive answer as to which custom shop offering is worth spending all of your hard-earned money on!! Woo!
everything is wood, plastic and metal. I treat every guitar the same no matter the sticker price 👍🎸
That Strat looks awesome, enjoy it!
