COMMENTS
Co-designed with Ed O'Brien.
The Fernandes Sustainer driver in the neck position expands the guitar's traditional sonic capabilities by creating near-infinite single or multi-string sustain. Like an E-Bow, it uses a battery-driven source of magnetic energy —in the neck pickup— to vibrate the strings from beneath. The effect can be like amplifier feedback. In other situations it comes closer to a bowed cello or an operatic voice. The sustainer’s performance characteristics change depending on the mass of the string you pluck (higher, unwound strings tend to “sing” more readily) and how you set the sustainer’s controls.
The 3-Way Mini Toggle Switch (Fundamental/Harmonic/Blend) switches between a “natural” setting that sustains fundamentals, a “harmonic” mode that sustains a blooming, natural 5th harmonic, and a third mode that sustains the fundamental and harmonic together (though the harmonic is much less pronounced in this mode).
The custom "Flower of Life" logo is an image said to represent the basis of music; the distances between the spheres is identical to the distances between whole and semi-tones.
FENDER SAYS
Ed O'Brien's ambient, ethereal and orchestral guitar style is an essential part of the sonic identity of Radiohead. We partnered with this groundbreaking player to create the Ed O’Brien Stratocaster — an instrument as unique as his sound. This inspiring guitar is perfect for creating lush, layered soundscapes and finding your own creative voice.
