2004 Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt 1960 Stratocaster Floyd Rose HSS Relic by John Cruz-Olympic White

由目前已離開Fender Custom Shop頂級部門Masterbuilt的傳奇製琴師John Cruz製作的限定版。這是John Cruz於2003剛晉升爲Masterbuilder時期的代表作，總數量不超過五把，雖然以1960年Stratocaster為基底，但結合了1968年的Large Headstock、倒角加工的Heel Cut Joint與少見的HSS單單雙拾音器與Floyd Rose大搖座配置，整把琴擁有他早期顯著的個人風格，極具特色，賦有濃厚的80年代搖滾氛圍。

由John Cruz親自挑選的木材，音色共鳴表顯出色，琴身為Ash，搭配60s Oval C型10” Radius楓木琴頸，電路也是John Cruz本人親手打造，在護板背後有著前中段拾音器為Fender Texas Special Pickups，復刻60年代經典的Stratocaster復古音色，後段則是配置Seymour Duncan SH-4雙線圈，音色出力更大、更厚實。而音量鈕上配置了S-1功能，可讓後段雙線圈做Coil Tap切單的功能，但依然保有扎實的音色，使得整體音色更加的多元。

整體八成新，除了本身Relic舊化以外，琴身各處有正常使用痕跡，琴頭後方有著Allen Wrench Holder的螺絲孔安裝痕跡，琴身拼接處的表漆有裂痕，但將琴頸與琴身分離後可以看到深層的木頭並沒有開裂，在彈奏與功能上並沒有任何問題，反映在價格上。

由John Cruz打造吉他的一直以來都是保值的象徵，自從他於2020年離開Fender後，以前由他所打造的Masterbuilt在市場上持續上漲，目前在市價已都來到了台幣40萬以上，John Cruz在未來幾乎不可能回歸Fender，而他經手過的吉他只會越來越稀有。

2004 Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt 1960 Stratocaster Floyd Rose HSS Relic by John Cruz – Olympic White

This is a limited-edition model crafted by the legendary luthier John Cruz, who has since departed from the top-tier Masterbuilt division of Fender Custom Shop. Created during the early phase of his promotion to Master Builder in 2003, this guitar stands as a representative piece of his formative years. While based on the 1960 Stratocaster, it uniquely incorporates a 1968-style large headstock, heel cut joint, rare HSS pickup configuration, and a Floyd Rose bridge—distinctively showcasing Cruz’s early personal style with a strong 1980s rock attitude.

Constructed with tonewoods personally selected by John Cruz, the guitar delivers outstanding resonance. It features an ash body paired with a 60s Oval C-shaped maple neck with a 10” radius. The electronics were hand-wired by Cruz himself, with his signature found on the back of the pickguard. The neck and middle pickups are Texas Specials, while the bridge position is loaded with a Seymour Duncan SH-4 humbucker, offering powerful, thick output. The volume knob includes an S-1 switch, allowing the humbucker to be coil-tapped while still retaining punchy tone, giving the guitar a broad tonal range.

Overall, the guitar remains in good condition. Aside from the intentional relic treatment, there are normal signs of use throughout. There are screw hole marks on the back of the headstock from a previously installed allen wrench holder and finish cracks around the neck joint, but upon removing the neck, the underlying wood is shown to be intact with no structural issues—purely cosmetic, with no impact on playability or function, and reflected accordingly in the price.

Guitars built by John Cruz have long been regarded as highly collectible. Since his departure from Fender in 2020, the market value of his Masterbuilt guitars has consistently increased, now typically exceeding USD 15,000. As it’s extremely unlikely Cruz will ever return to Fender, instruments crafted by him are becoming increasingly rare and desirable.
