The Perfect 10
Years ago, we approached our friends at the Fender Custom Shop with a proposal: would they build us guitars that combined the mojo of a true-to-vintage reissue with modern handfeel and comfy modern ergonomics? They were enthused about the idea, and the Wildwood 10 was born. Thanks to the Custom Shop's incredible craftsmanship and artistry, these guitars look gorgeous, sound killer, and play like butter.
Each of these Custom Shop creations features a thin fifties-style nitrocellulose finish, which allows the voice of the resonant hand-selected tonewoods to shine through. They also have hand-wound Custom Shop pickups that are sure to inspire you to reach new heights on your sonic journey. Wildwood 10s feel great in your hands, too. Their modern 10" radius is suitable for a wide variety of styles and techniques, and their 6105 narrow-tall frets allow you to expend less energy with your left hand, especially when bending strings. To top it all off, they come with a limited edition Dealer Select Wildwood 10 hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity.
A Perfect Postmodern 10
The Postmodern Stratocaster is incredibly popular here at Wildwood, and for good reason! The beauty of the Postmodern Stratocaster is that it isn't necessarily tied to a particular year, era, or moment in time. Rather, it collects and synthesizes the vibe of some of the greatest Stratocasters of all time.
Due to this model's wild popularity and unprecedented demand, Wildwood has teamed up with the Fender Custom Shop to create a Wildwood 10 iteration of this incredible instrument. It is thoroughly modern, but it is also a culmination of six decades of "Fender firsts."
This Wildwood 10 Postmodern Stratocaster has a highly-figured ash body with a comfortably deep cutaway heel. Speaking of comfort, it also has a maple neck with a finely sculpted '60 Oval C profile, a signature Wildwood 10" radius fingerboard, and narrow-tall 6105 frets. And, it makes a joyous noise with hand-wound pickups wound to Wildwood Specification. The Wildwood Staff adores the Postmodern Stratocaster, and we are honored to present our very own Wildwood 10 iteration to our exceptional customers! Feast!
Pickup Rundown
We believe that the Wildwood 10 Strat pickups our friends at Fender wind for us are some of the finest single-coils in the world. Here's a quick rundown of what makes them tick. They're slightly underwound, which gives them exceptional dynamic response and touch sensitivity. You can really alter your sound based on how hard you're hitting, which makes for a wonderfully expressive playing experience. However, they are wound with thicker wire like Fender did in the sixties, which gives them a little more power and guts despite being underwound. As a result, their voice is similar to vintage Strat pickups we love with lots of bell-like chime and vocal response, but with a little extra warmth and muscle.
Although they are not exactly the same as a real vintage example, we think they capture the magic sound of a great vintage Strat, giving you access to the iconic sound that shaped countless classic records. We have no doubt they will make your heartstrings resonate!
