Fender USA Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster, Maple Neck, Vintage White Overview
Fender Product Overview
A top seller, the Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster guitar is modelled after Malmsteen's favourite Fender guitar. Features include an alder body, scalloped fingerboard with deeper scalloping, machine screw neck mounting, brass nut, bullet truss rod nut, white/black/white pickguard, original synchronized tremolo and Seymour Duncan YJM Fury pickups.
Still the foremost and most formidable practitioner of the genre, Yngwie Malmsteem practically invented neo-classical shred singlehandedly. The guitar he has always done it with is a Stratocaster, and for those who aspire to Malmsteen’s flamboyantly fleet-fingered style, the Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster is modelled after the Swedish metal virtuoso’s favourite Strat, right down to its special pickups and scalloped fingerboard. A distinctively designed model for one of the world’s most distinctive Strat masters.
