Matt Schofield

On Matt Schofield's website, he writes, "For 10 years, my 1961 Fender Stratocaster was the guitar I played on every gig. All original, except for a refret with 6100 wire, a five way switch with the tone knob wired to the bridge pickup, and replacement vintage style saddles. It’s had a few different pickups in it over the years, but is now back to stock. It’s my benchmark guitar, and has been used on every record I have made."
