Fender Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster, Maple Neck - Olympic White with Gig Bag

Fender Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster: Embrace the Legacy of a Legend

Honoring the electrifying "Voodoo Chile" who popularized the Stratocaster guitar, the Fender Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster gives you the same fiery tone and playing feel to wield as your own. Full of vintage tone and classic style, this extraordinary instrument features signature touches and unique appointments based on Hendrix's distinctive "flipped-over" guitars.

Iconic Design with Hendrix's Signature Touches

"Reverse" Headstock and Bridge Pickup

The foundation of Hendrix's uniquely personal sound was his habit of flipping his guitars over and restringing them to accommodate his left-handed playing. This resulted in a "reverse" headstock and bridge pickup, features reproduced here in exacting detail. The "reverse" headstock produces a longer string length for the bass strings, creating a tighter playing feel and easier bending and vibrato on the treble strings.

Vintage-Style Pickups

A trio of unsurpassed American Vintage '65 single-coil pickups includes a reverse-slant bridge pickup, producing uniquely inspiring tone with tight, warm sound and enhanced upper harmonics and definition. These pickups capture the classic Hendrix sound, perfect for both clean and overdriven tones.

High-Performance Playability

Comfortable Neck Profile

The 9.5"-radius "C"-shaped maple neck with medium jumbo frets offers a flatter playing surface, ideal for chording while simultaneously allowing you to bend notes to the stratosphere during scorching solos. The gloss polyester finish on the neck ensures a smooth playing experience.

Vintage-Style Hardware

The 6-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge provides smooth and stable tremolo action, while the vintage-style tuning machines ensure accurate and reliable tuning stability. The aged white plastic control knobs and 3-ply white pickguard add to the classic aesthetic.

Commemorative Design Elements

Signature and Neck Plate

Commemorating Hendrix's unrivaled legacy, the large '70s-style headstock bears the guitarist's signature on the rear. A unique neck plate displays a shoulders-up silhouette of Hendrix and the engraved inscription, "Authentic Hendrix," leaving no doubt as to the inspiration behind this guitar.

Classic Finish Options

Available in classic Olympic White or Black, both with chrome hardware, the Jimi Hendrix Stratocaster is as visually striking as it is sonically powerful. The guitar includes a gig bag for easy transportation and protection.
