What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Dunlop 6000 frets Easy bending, scalloped feel
Vintage-style headstock Oversized headstock adds a vintage vibe
Alder body Light weight with a wide tonal range
YJM Fury pickups High-output, articulate, dynamic tone

Yngwie Malmsteen has a unique appreciation for the tone and feel of vintage Fender Stratocasters. But how much hard rock lifestyle can a practically antique instrument really handle? After all, Mr. Malmsteen has been known to fling vintage Strats across the stage to a roadie -- nearly smashing the instrument, and drawing gasps from the audience. For those unconventional guitar prodigies who respect vintage tone but not the instruments themselves, Fender offers the Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster electric guitar.

The Look and Feel of a '60s-era Strat...

When Fender and Yngwie teamed up to design this axe, it's easy to tell what Yngwie was looking for: a vintage Fender Stratocaster. And as such, many of this guitar's features are true to the era -- like a refined '60s neck shape, '60s headstock, and an aged finish on the alder body.

...With a Few Modern Touches

But this axe isn't just retro, it also offers specially voiced Seymour Duncan hum-cancelling single-coil pickups -- great for heavy rock ballads -- and a scalloped rosewood fingerboard with grooves so deep, your fingers may get lost in them. If you're curious to learn how a true rock legend would improve upon a vintage Fender Strat, get your hands on Yngwie's custom model and see for yourself.

This guitar has amazing sounding pickups. Clean to fully distorted. Chords and and leads sound great. Cuts through the mix great (sound guy loves it). Never tried a scalloped fret board before. Now I wish all my guitars were scalloped. 1st position chording is great. I have big fat fingers and it’s the easiest thing to play a F chord. Within a few minutes, I was getting used to the fretboard. Don’t worry about going sharp with the notes as others talk about. You have to be pressing pretty hard in my opinion. By the way, the other reviewer that didn’t like the pickups obviously has the older version which has different pickups. His review is from 2008.
