The Closet Classic treatment creates a distinctive-looking Strat
Fender Custom Shop's Closet Classic treatment creates instruments that are spittin' images of the originals. Without sneaking a look at the neck heel stamps, you'd be hard-pressed to distinguish the Sweetwater "Sweet '60s" '62 Stratocaster from the real deal. With a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish that gives the guitar a timeless, classic look, this axe looks like it's been gently aging inside its case in a closet for 50 years. Nitro finishes - standard back in the '60s - are significantly thinner than today's polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to "breathe." Nitro finishes not only look vintage-y wonderful, they also enhance the instrument's tonal qualities - so your Sweetwater "Sweet '60s" '62 Stratocaster sounds every bit as wicked as it looks!
