Fender Custom Shop Stevie Ray Vaughan Strat Relic Faded 3-Color Sunburst #CZ544065

What we say:

At A Glance

If you think of famous and influential Stratocaster players then there is no doubt that Stevie Ray Vaughan is going to be up there on that list. Almost single-handedly responsible for the electric blues revival of the 80s and 90s, he used his beloved Strat to blaze his way to the top of the charts. Only the artisans at the Custom Shop could craft this guitar that Vaughan co-designed with Fender before his untimely passing. It’s one of the most revered guitars in the world and is surely an essential guitar to have in your collection if SRV has influenced your playing.

Features We Love:

Left-Handed Vintage Style Tremolo Bridge

Taking influence from his personal hero Jimi Hendrix, SRV used a left-handed vintage style synchronized tremolo bridge. This allowed him to work the tremolo arm with his elbow. Not only is this incredibly cool because of the Hendrix connection but it was a very practical aspect of SRV's playing. Now it can be a part of your playing too as you go through your favourite licks from Texas Flood or use it as part of your own creative methods!

Custom Shop Hand-Wound Texas Special Pickups

These hot, high output pickups give a true Fender style tone that you will no doubt already know and love the sound of. They take the classic sounds that you know and love but with the increased output you don't have to worry about being lost in the mix or not cutting through on stage. All of the great Strat tone with none of the low-output problems!

Black SRV Pickguard

Let's face it - if you are looking at this guitar then chances are high that you are a big fan of SRV. What better way to have that encompassed on your guitar than with the classic black SRV pickguard. It adds an extra dose of cool on an already very nice guitar.

Pros:

• A Fender Custom Shop build with the usual high quality you would expect
• A must-have for any serious SRV fan
• Great tones that can get you through a whole host of settings
