Session guitar legend Michael Landau has left his mark on hundreds of recordings since the early 1980s, establishing himself as one of the most sought-after players in the industry. Beyond his extensive session work, Landau has led several notable bands including the Raging Honkies, Burning Water, and his recent collaboration Renegade Creation alongside Robben Ford. His own musical projects continue to push boundaries across electric jazz, instrumental, and rock guitar genres.
The Fender Custom Shop Artist Collection Michael Landau Signature 1968 Relic Stratocaster faithfully recreates Landau's personal 1968 Stratocaster. This meticulously crafted instrument features a hand-selected lightweight alder body paired with a distinctive "custom oval" neck profile for optimal playability.

Additional appointments include a round-laminated dark rosewood fingerboard with 7.25" radius and 6105 frets, complemented by the period-correct large headstock design. The instrument maintains authentic vintage specifications with five-way pickup switching and a custom vintage-style tremolo bridge system.
