Fender Custom Shop Jeff Beck Stratocaster Surf Green #XN17459

What we say:

At A Glance:

The late great and sorely missed Jeff Beck is highly regarded as one of the true greats and is notable for shying away from the limelight in preference for pushing the boundaries of what is possible with the Strat. This stunning Fender Custom Shop Jeff Beck Stratocaster in Surf Green represents where Jeff took the Strat design after decades of developing new tones and playing techniques.

The guitar is 100% a Stratocaster, but features several nuanced upgrades that deliver an enhanced and more reliable playing experience without impacting the authenticity of its tone. The inclusion of Fender Hot Noiseless pickups, a 2-Point Synchronized tremolo system, an LSR Roller Nut and Sperzel Trim-Lok tuners make this a massively versatile guitar that is a match for even the most advanced player. In essence, it's the Stratocaster at it's very best!

Features We Love:

Fender Custom Shop Quality

Fender Custom Shop guitars are known for their next level, quality, attention to detail, superb sound and outstanding playability. When you purchase a Fender Custom Shop guitar, you know that you're getting a top tier instrument, with few equals.

Hot Noiseless™ Single-Coil Strat® Set

The Hot Noiseless pickups set take that iconic Strat tone and cranks it up the deliver the wide dynamic range Jeff would take full advantage of. The innovative Noiseless design means that even with the volume dialled down for bluesy licks and up full for screaming leads, the tone of the guitar is free from the hum that impacts regular single coil pickups.

2-Point American Series Synchronized Tremolo

Jeff's ingenious use of the whammy bar required more tuning stability and fluidity than the traditional 6 point trem. By shifting the design to a 2-point synchronized vibrato that pivots on a knife edge you get nuanced control over your bends and less friction where the bridge meets the posts, so it always returns to the same point when you let go.

LSR Roller Nut

One of the most common causes of tuning problems when using a whammy bar is the risk of each string snagging in the nut as they shift with the bridge, the LSR Roller Nut prevents this by sitting each string in a pair of ball bearings, eliminating friction and letting your string glide back in to the correct spot every time.

Collectors and Jeff Beck fans will obviously love and cherish this guitar, but it's also a state of the art take on the classic Strat sound and feel that's a dream for any player to experience.
