Masterbuilt by Kyle McMillin, this Custom Shop Stratocaster is a striking fusion of modern performance and refined elegance. Dressed in a Trans Black Burst over Inca Silver finish, this NOS (New Old Stock) beauty showcases clean lines and bold contrast, built for players who want boutique quality with a high-performance edge.
The body is crafted from 2-piece select alder, known for its balanced tonal response — tight lows, punchy mids, and clear, singing highs. The AAA flame maple neck features a comfortable Modern “C” profile (.820"-.870") and an oil urethane finish that feels fast, smooth, and naturally broken-in. On top, a compound-radius (10"-12") ebony fingerboard with 6150 medium jumbo frets offers the perfect blend of modern playability and classic feel.
Engineered for expressive lead work, this Strat comes loaded with a recessed Floyd Rose tremolo and Floyd Rose locking nut for ultimate tuning stability and dive-bomb control. The electronics pack a serious punch with a Seymour Duncan TB-4 (JB) in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan '59 SH-1 in the neck, delivering a wide sonic range from tight rhythm crunch to smooth, saturated leads in an HH configuration.
Finished with black hardware, 4-ply white pearloid pickguard, eggshell knobs, and vintage-style tuners, this Strat is both a visual statement and a professional-grade instrument. Built to inspire, this Kyle McMillin Masterbuilt is a bold evolution of the iconic Strat platform — made for players who demand both style and substance.
