This instrument isn't just a guitar; it's a canvas for your creativity, fine-tuned to deliver the same captivating tones that have filled arenas around the world.

At its heart, this Stratocaster is powered by a pair of Custom Shop Fat '50s single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, promising a versatile tonal palette with enhanced bass response.

The quartersawn maple neck adds to the guitar's bright, resonant sound, while the contoured neck heel and 9.5” fingerboard cater to a variety of playing styles, from deep, resonant chords to sparkling high-register solos.

Engineered with precision, the two-point synchronized tremolo bridge with a pop-in arm allows for smooth, expressive bends and sustained notes that linger beautifully. Whether you're chasing shimmering highs or deep, resonant lows, this guitar's crafted for those who dare to redefine music on their own terms.

Fender The Edge Stratocaster review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The Fender The Edge Signature Stratocaster is a guitar that embodies stage-ready practicality with sensible upgrades. While it offers a bright, chiming voice and a robust bridge pickup, the overwhelming variety of modern Strats might leave some potential buyers feeling indecisive. Despite this minor drawback, the guitar's pro-level features and versatile sound make it a top choice for musicians seeking an instrument that can seamlessly transition from studio to stage.

Used for the recording of "Who Built The Moon?"

“I’m making a different kind of music now,” Noel Gallagher confesses. “Who Built The Moon? is all a Nash Strat and a brand-new Fender silverface Princeton. And on the three new EPs that I’ve done, I used one guitar. It’s The Edge’s signature Strat, by Fender. It’s fucking amazing. It’s a copy of his 1974 Strat, the black one. And it’s hands-down one of the best guitars I’ve ever played in my life.”
