Description

Fender helped Iron Maiden guitarist Dave Murray to recreate the go-to Strat he's played for countless fans the world over, scrapping the traditional three-single coil pickup set for two Seymour Duncan Hot Rails humbucking pickups at the neck and bridge and one Seymour Duncan Mini JB humbucking pickup in the middle. The result is the kind of serious bite only a real mother–uhh­–Iron Maiden fan­ could love. The compound-radius neck adds modern playability and the Floyd Rose R3 nut and FRT-O1000 Double-Locking Tremolo mean perfect tune and tone every time.

Founded by Leo Fender in 1938 as Fender's Radio Service, what is now the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation began making electric guitars and amplifiers in 1945. The rest, as they say, is history. Creator of the world's first mass-produced, and by far most popular, solid-bodied electric, Fender is now the world's leading guitar manufacturer. Developed hand-in-hand with some of the biggest artists of yesterday and today, the Fender Artist Series is a collaborative line of signature models incorporating hand-selected tonewoods and custom appointments and specs, voiced to specific tones and playing styles by our master builders and the artists themselves. Stratocasters, Telecasters, Jaguars, Jazzmasters, and Jazz, Precision, and Jaguar basses take on new life with the help of some of music's most revered icons.
