Fender Buddy Guy Standard Stratocaster, Maple Fingerboard (Polka Dot Finish)

SPOT-ON BUDDY GUY STRAT® STYLE

Nail Buddy Guy's stinging tone and vibe on the dot with the Buddy Guy Standard Stratocaster. With a bold polka-dot finish as flamboyant as Guy himself, it's likely one of the most distinctive Strat® models you'll ever lay eyes (and hands) on. And with pure tone and vintage-style features, it's a superbly spot-on performer worthy of one of the greatest names in electric blues.

The Fender Buddy Guy Standard Stratocaster pays tribute to a truly original Chicago blues legend. This classic Strat features a lightweight, resonant alder body with Guy’s iconic polka dot art covering the top, back, and sides. The Buddy Guy Standard Strat is outfitted with three single-coil pickups for punchy, crisp tone and loads of snappy attack. Cut to a soft “V” profile, the smooth maple neck with maple fingerboard offers incredible playability and response. Much like the legendary bluesman himself, this Strat is designed for no-nonsense, straight-ahead playability and stellar tone! And for killer sustain and solid tuning support, the Buddy Guy Standard Stratocaster features a 6-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge
