OK, I’m not usually a huge fan of signature guitars — the concept just seems a little too “worshipy” to me — but Fender’s gorgeous Stevie Ray Vaughan Stratocaster is something else entirely. In fact, I’m half tempted to buy one of these beauties and just strip off the “SRV” pickguard in favor of something more subtle.
Designed by Stevie Ray Vaughan just shortly before his incredibly early death, this is one fully-loaded Stratocaster — it sports a number of unique features, like an inverted left-hand tremolo, an oval shaped neck, and of course a trio of Stevie’s signature red-hot Fender Texas Special™ single-coils.
In a word: this is one house-rockin’ guitar… those pickups just pop!
