Description
Here’s what Fender say about the Fender USA Malmsteen Strat MN Electric Guitar in Vintage White UPGR:
“Still the foremost and most formidable practitioner of the genre, Yngwie Malmsteem practically invented neo-classical shred singlehandedly. The guitar he has always done it with is a Stratocaster, and for those who aspire to Malmsteen’s flamboyantly fleet-fingered style, the Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster is modeled after the Swedish metal virtuoso’s favorite Strat®, right down to its special pickups and scalloped fingerboard. A distinctively designed model for one of the world’s most distinctive Strat masters.”
