THE LIMITED-EDITION MASTER BUILT DAVE MURRAY STRATOCASTER® Master Built by Andy Hicks.
As Iron Maiden celebrate their landmark 50th Anniversary, they stand as one of heavy metal’s most influential and enduring forces since forming in East London back in 1975. Seen by many as pioneering the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the band reached new heights with their unmistakable sound and theatrical performances. Legendary guitarist Dave Murray partnered with Fender Custom Shop Master Builder Andy Hicks to help enhance his iconic Stratocaster®.
The 2-piece select alder body is flawlessly finished in NOS Olympic White and is paired with an oil-finished ‘60s-style Oval “C”-shaped walnut neck for an incredibly comfortable, high-performance Strat®. With a flat-laminated, 9.5” to 14” compound radius rosewood fingerboard and 21 medium jumbo stainless-steel frets, this guitar plays effortlessly. Loaded with Murray’s tried and true combination of Seymour Duncan® Hot Rails® bridge and neck pickups and a JB Jr.™ middle pickup, this Strat is powerful, punchy and perfect for intricate, galloping rhythm parts and soaring leads.
To keep up with the rigors of global touring, Murray and Hicks landed on a combination of premium parts upgrades ranging from the addition of an AxLabs Tone Claw Locking Spring Claw and Heavy-Duty Noiseless Springs to suite of FU-Tone components (42mm Big Brass Block and Tremolo Stopper, Titanium String Lock Screws, Saddle Mounting Screws, Nut Clamp Screws, Lock Nut Blocks, Saddle Inserts and Bridge Posts).
After road-testing this latest incarnation of his favorite Fender, it’s easy to see why the Limited-Edition Master Built Dave Marray Stratocaster® is his new #1.
Other premium features include Dave Murray signature neckplate, vintage-style tuners, Fender Custom Shop strap and certificate of authenticity.
