Description

Neo-classical shred master Yngwie Malmsteen is one of the most influential guitar virtuosos of the last 40 years. Throughout his entire career, Malmsteen has been synonymous with the Fender Stratocaster, and has had a signature model with the world-famous brand since 1986. This made in Japan version of his unique artist guitar comes equipped with many of Malmsteen's favourite features, including a fully-scalloped Maple neck with 21 medium jumbo frets, a large '70s-style headstock, a brass nut, and a set of his searing-hot signature Seymour Duncan YJM Fury Strat pickups.

Key Features

  • Alder Body — Popular timber synonymous with Fender guitars. Offers a balanced tonal foundation for the pickups, with tight lows, bold mids and singing highs.
  • Slim "C" Maple Neck — A thin neck profile that allows you to play at lightning speed like Yngwie!
  • Scalloped Fingerboard — Increases the space beneath the strings for exceptional note control; enabling wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends. Fitted with 21 medium jumbo frets.
  • Seymour Duncan YJM Fury Pickups — Based on Seymour Duncan's original patented "Stack" design, the YJM Fury pickup uses custom-length alnico 5 rod magnets and a unique coil architecture to bring you that perfect balance of sweet fluidity and articulation that is Yngwie J. Malmsteen!
  • Vintage-Style Synchronised Tremolo — Highly-responsive and smooth, so that you can embellish chords with subtle warbles or add craziness to your leads with dramatic pitch bends and divebombs.
