If you’re an SRV fan, the Stevie Ray Vaughan Signature Stratocaster will strike a familiar chord. It’s a meticulous re-creation of Stevie’s beloved “Number One” Strat — from its 2-piece alder body to its distinctive SRV-emblazoned pickguard. Just like Stevie's own guitar, the Stevie Ray Vaughan Signature Strat has a reversed (left-handed) tremolo and comes with three blistering Texas Special single-coil pickups. Unlike Stevie’s road-torn axe, however, this Strat sports an NOS finish for a like-new look and feel. Texas Special pickups will set your playing on fire The Fender Custom Shop Stevie Ray Vaughan Signature Stratocaster boasts three hand-wound Texas Special single-coils — overwound, calibrated, vintage-style Strat pickups. These pups will set your playing on fire in true Texas blues fashion. You'll love the midrange chirp, bell-like highs, and tight bass that they inject into your favorite licks. Alnico V magnets and enamel-coated magnet wire create the kind of increased output that fueled SRV’s fiery playing style. Each pickup was handbuilt using cloth lead wires and fiber bobbins and was wax potted to give you microphonic-free operation. The guitarists here at Sweetwater dig the SRV Signature Strat’s Texas Special pickups — they epitomize the one-of-a-kind voice of Texas blues. Fast-playing maple neck with deep, thick oval shape The Stevie Ray Vaughan Signature Stratocaster features a riftsawn maple neck with a special early-'60s deep, thick Oval "C" shape. Its 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard comes loaded with 21 jumbo frets and yields effortless playability. The neck is finished with a smooth nitrocellulose lacquer. All this adds up to a fast-playing guitar that’s tailor-made for arduous bends and fleet-fingered runs. It’s an instrument worthy of the initials “SRV.” Fender Custom Shop Stevie Ray Vaughan Signature Stratocaster NOS Features: Stevie Ray Vaughan signature Stratocaster 2-piece alder body supplies a balanced tonal base 3 Texas Special single-coil pickups offer up fat, bluesy tones SRV Oval C-shaped, riftsawn maple neck with smooth nitrocellulose lacquer finish 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard comes loaded with 21 jumbo frets Reversed (left-handed) 6-saddle American Vintage synchronized tremolo Distinctive SRV-emblazoned pickguard NOS nitrocellulose lacquer finish for a like-new look and feel Eye-catching gold hardware Includes a deluxe hardshell case, strap, and certificate of authenticity Specification Detail Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Type Solidbody Body Shape Stevie Ray Vaughan Stratocaster Body Material 2-piece Select Alder Color 3-Tone Sunburst Body Finish Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Neck Material Rigtsawn Maple Neck Shape SRV Oval C Neck Joint Bolt-on Radius 12" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 21, Jumbo Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.650" Nut Material Bone Bridge/Tailpiece 6-saddle American Vintage Synchronized Tremolo Tuners Vintage-style Neck Pickup Hand-wound Texas Special Strat Single-coil Middle Pickup Hand-wound Texas Special Strat Single-coil Bridge Pickup Hand-wound Texas Special Strat Single-coil Controls 1 x master volume, 2 x tone Switching 5-way blade pickup switch Strings Fender, .009-.042 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
