Cara Guitars is one of the few builders that have been through the Fender Legal department and have been documented on how to legally produce these guitars. We were previously issued a stop order, and followed Fenders instructions exactly to be able to build these guitars.\u00a0 We can provide documentation from the Fender Legal Department. These guitars do carry a warranty that we cover around the world with our associates of repair shops.<\/span><\/p>\nHere are the highlights<\/strong><\/u><\/span>
\nThe guitar started as a 1996 Fender 62\u00a0Japan Reissue, We have found that this reissue Body and Neck configuration are the most accurate to the 62′ Specs<\/span><\/p>\nThe body and neck were carefully stripped and then kiln dried.<\/span>
\nOnce dried they were finished to vintage Fender specs with Nitro Lacquer.<\/span>
\nCara filler block Clones are some of the very few that are actually dipped in the original 62 formula Yellow Stain.\u00a0Take a close look at Original SRV Photos and this guitar.\u00a0\u00a0No better attention to paint detail is taken.<\/span><\/p>\nOpen wood was chemically aged, not stained, and the color of the wood impregnates past the surface, just as natural aging would.<\/span><\/p>\nDecals are exact matches to SRV’s and placement is pinpoint correct, with trimming as found on the original #1. The rear of guitar shows major distress surrounding the tremolo cavity and wood burnt S.R. Vaughan<\/span><\/p>\nNeck<\/strong><\/u><\/span>
\nThe fretboard has been leveled just as SRV’s tech had done over the many years of work. The Radius is closer to a 9″ than a 10″<\/span>
\nThe neck has been refretted with Dunlop Jumbo Frets and dressed 1x<\/span>
\nHeadstock shows heat damage below the low E tuning post.<\/span>
