Called "Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster"
FENDER SAYS
The U-shaped neck, large headstock and glossy maple fingerboard are unmistakable features that defined an era. This beautiful reproduction has it all - vintage tuners and tremolo, three-ply white/black/white pickguard and ash (basswood) body in all right finishes.
