Condition: Mint
There is no greater example of guitar hero Eric Johnson's devotion to his art than his signature model Stratocaster® guitar. With singular attention to detail, the Eric Johnson Stratocaster Rosewood features a two-piece alder body finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, quartersawn maple neck with bound round-laminated 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard, three-ply parchment pickguard, pickups voiced by Johnson himself, staggered vintage-style tuners, and custom tremolo block. Deluxe blonde hardshell case included.
Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish: Nitrocellulose lacquer is one of the great original-era Fender electric guitar finishes, and is still used today on select instruments. Thin, porous and delicate, it’s a premium finish prized for sonic qualities that let body woods breathe with their true tonal character, and for an appearance that ages and wears in a distinctive way appealing to many players.
Quartersawn Neck with "V" Profile: The neck of Johnson’s finely crafted signature Strat is fashioned from extra-strong quartersawn maple, with a sharper 1950s-style "V" profile (the shape of the neck in cross section) ideal for players with larger hands whose thumb extends over the edge of the fingerboard.
Special Eric Johnson Pickups: Eric Johnson is known for being meticulous about tone, and the sound of his signature Stratocaster comes from three specially voiced Eric Johnson single-coil pickups with countersunk mounting screws.
Bound Rosewood Fingerboard with 12" Radius: This instrument features an elegantly bound rosewood fingerboard with a 12" radius (the amount of curvature across the width of the fingerboard). This is notably flatter than both a vintage-style 7.25" radius and a modern 9.5" radius, and is great for bending notes without fretting out.
Staggered Vintage-Style Tuners: These tuners have a cool vintage-style look and are height-staggered in pairs, with posts that get progressively shorter from the low strings to the high strings. This creates optimal string break angles from the nut to the tuners, with no consequent need for string trees.
No Back Tremolo Cover/Screw Holes: According to Johnson’s own specs, his signature Stratocaster has no tremolo cavity cover on the back and no screw holes for one.
