For me the appeal of the Fender Custom Shop is vintage-looking guitars - with some non-vintage features like a choice of neck profiles, flatter radius, bigger frets etc.
If I was looking for a "posh Strat" - I might call it a "genteel Superstrat" - I would probably look to Suhr or Anderson before Fender (although I've never owned either).

Excellent instruments and that model has a 'swimming pool' route, so that you can change the pickup config if desired and it actually adds a bit to the tone (Suhr etc are the same)

I'd prefer a G&L however - Same quality and less cost

@guitars4you Thanks! Thought so.

Also this CS, which appeals more:

Of course, down to cash adjustments...

Fender got this one very wrong.

Also, value- £1400 tops. I bought one from Doug for that, although I returned it as it was horrible.

Very tempted by a white Jackson Adrian Smith USA...

I'm not up to date on Jackson prices so suggest someone else can help you on that - might be better with a new thread to get the ball rolling
