General

Fender's Custom Shop Artisan series uses striking, superior wood types to give well-known guitar models a stunning, exotic finish.

Fender Walnut Top Artisan Strat Buckeye RW: wood, sound and feel

This Stratocaster's body is made of specially selected alder. It is bolted on to a AAA-quality flamed maple neck with a rosewood fretboard, via four screws. The overall sound produced is balanced, offering that famous Fender bite rounded off with creamy tones. Custom Shop Fat '50s single-coil pickups ensure that you can produce a wide range of traditional, bright Fender sounds. A two-point tremolo bridge with flat block saddles, the soft V profile neck and the narrow jumbo frets give this high-quality electric solid-body a pleasant and smooth feel when playing.

All Artisan guitars are finished with meticulous attention to detail and guarantee perfection when it comes to sound, look and playing comfort.
