Fender Made in Japan Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster MN Vintage White Electric Guitar with Gig Bag

General

Due to unforeseen production issues, the American edition of the supreme Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster is hard to come by but in the tight form of the Japanese edition, you're getting a more-than-convincing alternative. Instead of the basswood body of older Japanese Malmsteen signature Strats, this all-new edition features an alder body complete with a Seymour Duncan YJM Fury Strat pickup load-out, guaranteeing the immediately recognisable tonal response of the maestro himself. This limited edition model comes pre-wrapped in a gig bag.

The Japan Exclusive Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster: That Special Neck

One of the features that makes the Malmsteen Strat so singular is the scalloped neck, where the space between frets has been lightly scooped out to support increased string grip and ultra-light playability. Another essential detail to note is the brass nut, which doesn't just look cool but pushes up the treble sustain to increase the overall presence. Add on the vintage-style synchronised tremolo bridge and you've got nothing short of a highly detailed and versatile six-string smasher.

• Please note: This is a limited edition model. Only a few will ever be made and once they're gone, they're gone forever!
