Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Very Good

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

Meticulously designed to exact artist specifications, the Fender Artist Signature Eric Johnson Stratocaster features an alder body finished in gloss lacquer Black with a 1-ply parchment pickguard. Weighing 7 lbs 7 oz, it incorporates a 1-piece quartersawn maple neck carved to a Soft "V" profile in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, paired with an integrated 12" radius maple fingerboard carrying 21 medium jumbo frets, black dot inlays, and a 1.650" bone nut over a 25.5" scale length. Tone is driven by a trio of specially voiced Eric Johnson single-coil pickups with countersunk mounting screws, routed through a 5-position blade switch, master volume, Tone 1 (neck pickup), and Tone 2 (bridge pickup). Hardware appointments include a 6-saddle American Vintage synchronized tremolo with an included chrome bridge cover, vintage-style staggered tuners eliminating the need for string trees, parchment plastic controls, and nickel/chrome finish, complete with a hardshell case.

From Fender

Any guitarist who marvels at the breathtaking sonic artistry and peerlessly pure tone of Texas Strat® virtuoso Eric Johnson will also marvel at the Eric Johnson Stratocaster Maple guitar. Johnson is famously meticulous in crafting his tone, and every facet of the guitar is designed to Johnson's own detailed specs, from the specially voiced pickups to the extra-contoured neck and body to the distinctive tremolo assembly and much more. A refined signature model honoring one of modern music's finest Strat masters.
