Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster Review

Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster Review from the Artist Series Signature Strat range. Fender are one of the USA's electric guitar making giants. Our Fender Jeff Beck Strat is in surf green we talk you through the specs and features plus demonstrations.

The Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster is a signature model designed in collaboration with the legendary English rock guitarist Jeff Beck. This guitar was created to meet Beck's specific needs and demands, as he had outgrown the older designs of the Stratocaster.

The concept behind this specific instrument was to create a Stratocaster that would be able to handle the full range of Jeff Beck's playing styles, from hard-driving rock to intricate jazz and blues. This required a number of modifications to the classic Stratocaster design.

One of the unique features of the Jeff Beck Stratocaster is its contoured heel, which allows easier access to the upper frets. This makes it easier for Beck to play his signature high-flying solos. The guitar also features a slightly larger C-shaped neck profile with a satin finish, which provides a comfortable grip and allows for fast and accurate playing.

Another modification is the dual-coil ceramic Noiseless pickups that provide a powerful and clear sound with reduced hum and noise. This allows Beck to play at high volume without experiencing annoying background hiss and hum.

The guitar also features a two-point synchronized tremolo system with stainless steel saddles, which provides stable and accurate tuning, even under heavy use. This is especially important for Beck, who frequently uses the tremolo arm to create dramatic pitch bends and dive bombs.

Other unique features of the Jeff Beck Stratocaster include a LSR roller nut that reduces friction and improves tuning stability, a beveled neck heel for added comfort and reduced hand fatigue, and a custom Thin-Film undercoat finish that enhances the guitar's resonance and sustain.

Overall, the Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster is a high-quality instrument that reflects Jeff Beck's unique playing style and demands. It is a guitar that is designed to provide exceptional performance and versatility, making it a favorite among guitarists who demand the best.
