Fender Mike McCready Stratocaster Electric Guitar in Three Colour Sunburst

The Fender Mike McCready Stratocaster is a signature electric guitar designed in collaboration with the Pearl Jam guitarist. It aims to capture the specific sound, feel, and aesthetic of his heavily used 1960 Stratocaster, which has been a cornerstone of his playing for decades. This model is built for guitarists seeking the authentic tones and character associated with McCready's influential grunge and rock style. The guitar features an alder body with a heavily relic'd 'Road Worn' nitrocellulose lacquer finish in Three Colour Sunburst, replicating the natural wear of a vintage instrument. It is fitted with a maple neck in a slim 'C' profile and a 9.5-inch radius slab rosewood fingerboard for comfortable playability. The electronics consist of three custom-wound '60s-style single-coil pickups, voiced to deliver the quack, chime, and bell-like clarity of McCready's original guitar. Hardware includes a vintage-style six-saddle synchronized tremolo bridge with bent steel saddles and a cold-rolled steel block for enhanced sustain and classic vibrato performance. A treble bleed circuit maintains high-end clarity when lowering the volume. This instrument is well-suited for players who appreciate vintage-inspired specifications and a broken-in feel straight from the factory. It is an ideal choice for rock and alternative guitarists looking for a classic Stratocaster sound with the distinctive, road-worn character of a musician's personal instrument. The included deluxe brown hardshell case ensures secure transport and storage.
