'59 saw the debut of the rosewood fingerboard, bringing a great look and sound to the Strat. The two-piece, nitro-finished alder body's Heavy Relic treatment, roasted neck, gold anodized pickguard and Texas Special pickups make this guitar bad, baby, bad especially when it comes to its looks and sound.
