What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: Some of the frets were coming out of the fretboard, and our luthier reseated them and glued them into place. All of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. The frets ends were sticking out and were rounded off and polished. After further examination, our luthier believes this guitar was refretted at some point. No further work was needed.

This Fender Kenny Wayne Shepherd Stratocaster is a soulful, stage-ready take on a classic, built to capture expressive blues tone with effortless feel. Its chambered ash body adds lively resonance and sweet sustain, finished in stunning Transparent Faded Sonic Blue gloss lacquer that glows under the lights. A quartersawn maple neck and vintage 7.25" rosewood board make bends feel smooth and natural, while jumbo frets and a bone nut keep everything confident and precise. Custom-voiced KWS single-coils deliver rich clarity and punch, paired with a vintage trem and Graph Tech saddles for rock-solid stability—an inspiring, USA-made investment built to sing for years.

Manufacturer's Description from Fender

Kenny Wayne Shepherd's fiery leads, meaty rhythms, and hard-driving songs have propelled his robust career through nine solo records - three certified platinum, major tours with Buddy Guy, Van Halen, and The Rolling Stones, and an ongoing collaboration with blues-supergroup The Rides with Stephen Stills.

The Kenny Wayne Shepherd Stratocaster features a chambered ash body for vibrant and resonant tone, while the Transparent Faded Sonic Blue lacquer finish highlights the beautiful ash grain. The early '60s inspired "C"-shaped maple neck and bound rosewood fingerboard - with a 7.25" radius - offer comfort and playability straight out of Fender's golden age. Loaded with three Kenny Wayne Shepherd custom pickups, this guitar delivers punchy and full-throated Strat tones.
