Fender Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster Maple FB Olympic White Electric Guitar

Channel the legendary sound of rock's most iconic left-handed guitarist with the Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster, a faithful tribute to the “Voodoo Chile” who revolutionised the sonic possibilities of the Stratocaster. This extraordinary instrument captures Hendrix's fiery tone and distinctive playing feel, featuring signature appointments based on his unique “flipped-over” guitar setup that became the foundation of his groundbreaking sound.

The guitar's most distinctive features stem from Hendrix's habit of flipping right-handed guitars and restringing them for left-handed play. This created the signature “reverse” headstock and bridge pickup configuration reproduced here in exacting detail. The reverse headstock design produces longer string length for the bass strings, resulting in a tighter playing feel whilst making bending and vibrato easier on the treble strings. A trio of exceptional American Vintage '65 single-coil pickups includes the crucial reverse-slant bridge pickup, generating that uniquely inspiring tone characterised by tight, warm sound with enhanced upper harmonics and definition.

Built for both rhythm and lead playing, the highly versatile 9.5”-radius “C”-shaped maple neck features medium jumbo frets on a flatter playing surface that's ideal for chording whilst allowing dramatic note bending during solos. Commemorating Hendrix's unrivalled legacy, the large '70s-style headstock bears the guitarist's signature on the rear, whilst a unique neck plate displays a shoulders-up silhouette of the man himself with the engraved inscription “Authentic Hendrix.” Available in classic Olympic White or Black with chrome hardware and including a gig bag, this Stratocaster offers your chance to unleash your own “electric sky church” music.
