"Owning a Fender Stratocaster from its first year of production is a nice thing to fantasize about if you have $20,000 or so burning a hole in your wallet, or a generous credit limit on your Guitar Player Visa card. But if you’re neither wealthy nor inclined to go way into hock for a vintage guitar, you’re a prime candidate for the 50th Anniversary “Limited Release” 1954 Stratocaster from the Fender Custom Shop. And while you’re calculating all the beans you’ll save by purchasing this accurate replica of a first-year Strat, you might want to budget a little extra for the ideal thing to plug it into: the new ’57 Twin Amp."
