Fender Albert Hammond Jr. Signature Stratocaster®, Rosewood Fingerboard, Olympic White
- Description
- Specifications
STROKE AND STRUM
The Albert Hammond Jr Stratocaster celebrates the unique sound and iconic style that continues to define generations of young guitarists starting bands in the back of their garages. When it came time for Albert Hammond Jr to lay down the guitar tracks for The Strokes catalog as well as his solo work, which includes the critically acclaimed album, Francis Trouble, he reached for his 1985 reissue of a 72 Strat®. As a unique touch weve replicated Hammonds customized pickups switching: pickup switch position four activates the neck and bridge pickups in tandem, while positions one and three are reversed from the traditional layout. Hammonds signature graces the back of the large 70s-style headstock, while other 70s-inspired features include bullet truss rod nut, 3-bolt C-stamped neck plate with period-correct Micro-Tilt adjustment and a 70s-era logo.

HIGHLIGHTS
70S HEADSTOCK
A period-accurate touch, the large headstock brings an aesthetic straight from the 70s into the modern day.
CUSTOM CERAMIC SINGLE-COIL PICKUPS
Theres nothing like the timeless singing, snapping, screaming and sparkling sound of Fender ceramic single-coil Stratocaster pickups.
CUSTOM PICKUP SWITCHING
Pickup switch position four activates the neck and bridge pickups in tandem, unlocking Tele-like two-pickup tones. Positions 1 and 3 are also reversed from the traditional layout.
3-BOLT NECK PLATE
A vintage-correct feature, this 3-bolt neck plate features our classic Micro-Tilt to help you adjust the neck angle for just the right action for your playing style.
BULLET TRUSS ROD NUT
For 1970s-era authenticity, this guitar features the truss rod system introduced in 1971, when the truss rod adjustment mechanism was changed to a bullet-shaped nut.
