FENDER Michael Landau 1963 Relic Stratocaster Fiesta Red over 3-Color Sunburst
Authentic replica of Michael Landau's 1963 vintage Strat, including case and certificate
The Fender Michael Landau 1963 Relic Stratocaster Fiesta Red over 3-Color Sunburst is an authentic recreation of the original 1963 vintage Strat which the legendary session guitarist from Los Angeles used on countless well-known recordings. Following the historical guidelines, this electric guitar features a light alder body and a bolt-on maple neck with a "Round-Laminated" rosewood fretboard and a "Custom C" profile for easy handling. Three Fender Custom Shop Fat '50s single coils provide the guitar amp with expressive vintage sounds that blend in with almost any style of music. The traditional hardware configuration with a 6-saddle synchronized tremolo and precise vintage-style tuners completes the Fender Michael Landau 1963 Relic Stratocaster Fiesta Red over 3-Color Sunburst.
The Fender Michael Landau 1963 Relic Stratocaster Fiesta Red over 3-Color Sunburst is an authentic recreation of the original 63 vintage Strat of the LA session legend.
The light alder body is lacquered in an elaborate Color-over-Color nitrocellulose finish.
Selected woods in Color-over-Color finish
For the construction of the Fender Michael Landau 1963 Relic Stratocaster, the Fender Custom Shop uses only carefully selected woods that guarantee a lively sound and low weight of the electric guitar. Accordingly, the body is made of light alder, while the bolt-on maple neck carries the historically correct "Round-Laminated" rosewood fretboard glued to the radius specified by the neck. Here the comfortable "Custom C" profile and the 7.25" vintage fretboard radius promise comfortable playing. Another absolute highlight is the artificially aged Color-over-Color finish, which is inspired by the often overpainted sunburst bodies of original vintage guitars.
Three Fender Custom Shop Fat '50s single coils promise authentic vintage sounds on your guitar amp.
Custom Shop Fat '50s pickups for versatile vintage sounds
The Fender Michael Landau 1963 Relic Stratocaster Fiesta Red over 3-Color Sunburst features three Fat '50s single coils wound in the hallowed halls of the Fender Custom Shop. Equipped with Alnico V magnets and the historically correct Formvar wire, these pickups deliver powerful vintage sounds with fat basses, vocal midrange and the typical clarity in the trebles. The lively dynamic response of the single-coil pickups supports expressive electric guitar playing in a wide range of styles between pop, rock and blues. The pickups are controlled via a subtly modified 5-way circuit whose first tone control acts on the neck and middle pickups, while the second tone control determines the treble spectrum of the bridge pickup.
In addition to the master's printed signature, the headstock of the 1963 Fender Michael Landau Relic Strat carries six vintage-style tuners.

Behind the bone nut, the classic Fender headstock features six vintage-style tuners for precise and stable tuning of this electric guitar.

Fender '63 Strat Relic Michael Landau Signature Fiesta Red
Is it worth the price difference from USA production model? For me it is. Better neck profile from (my) already great AO60’s. Actually best neck profile I ever played on any Strat.
Much nicer/sweeter pickups with no shrill high end, definitely you can be in Frusciante/RHCP land. Same for Mayer and his tones , you get very close depending on your settings and gear.
Excellent fretwork, light and unbelievably resonant.
I don’t know if Landau 68 Strat are consistently this good but would recommend to anyone to try this model.
