You know it when you play one; it’s definitely more than the sum of its parts. It’s filled with intangible, electrifying elements that add a new dimension to your playing experience. It’s as if the instrument itself is imbued with history, alive with the spirit of the place where it was built and the devotion of those who crafted it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePearl Jam’s Mike McCready has earned his place among the giants of rock ‘n’ roll guitar. Best known for playing a ’59 Strat, his searing leads are steeped in blues and classic rock reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend and Keith Richards, and his peerless work on hits, including “Yellow Ledbetter”, “Even Flow”, “Nothing As It Seems” and countless others, helped pave the way for Pearl Jam’s 2017 induction into the Rock \u0026amp; Roll Hall of Fame. McCready’s guitar work in Seattle supergroups Temple of the Dog and Mad Season also featured instantly recognizable Strat riffs, such as those heard on “Hunger Strike” and “River of Deceit”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspired by Stevie Ray Vaughan, McCready set out early on to acquire his own ’59 Strat, and, serendipitously, with his first ever vintage guitar purchase, he found “the one” that has been his primary Fender instrument ever since. Now some 28 years later, McCready’s iconic Strat can be heard featured on tracks “Superblood Wolfmoon” and “Dance Of The Clairvoyants\" from Pearl Jam's most recent studio LP, Gigaton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this first-time collaboration between Fender and McCready, the Fender Custom Shop is honored to re-create this incredible instrument in exact detail, and in doing so a long held secret about the guitar’s lineage was forced to be revealed to its owner: the Strat was actually constructed in 1960, not 1959 as had long been believed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this limited 60-piece Masterbuilt run, the Custom Shop’s Vincent Van Trigt carefully disassembled the guitar in order to note and measure every detail, curve and scratch - and there are plenty of scratches, thanks to McCready’s exuberant style! The recreation features an ultimate Relic lacquer finish on a two-piece select alder body; a flat-sawn flame maple neck with a 1960 “oval C” profile; and a flat-lam rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage frets. Custom Josefina hand-wound pickups matched to the originals are connected to a five-way switch and vintage wiring, including a “treble bleed” tone capacitor. Other features include a three-ply vinyl pickguard, vintage-style synchronized tremolo with Callaham bridge block, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and wing string tree with metal spacer. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap, polishing cloth, McCready case candy kit and certificate of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cstrong\u003e7 lbs 7 oz\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial#:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVV273\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material:  \u003c\/strong\u003e2-Piece Alder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish:  \u003c\/strong\u003eNitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Material\u003c\/strong\u003e:  Flame A Maple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Shape:  \u003c\/strong\u003e1960 Oval C \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(1st Fret: .787\" - 12th Fret: .950\")\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length\u003c\/strong\u003e:  25.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRadius:  \u003c\/strong\u003e9.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrets:  \u003c\/strong\u003e21\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFret Size:  \u003c\/strong\u003eMedium Vintage 47095\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eString Nut:  \u003c\/strong\u003eBone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width:  \u003c\/strong\u003e1.648\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Plate:\u003c\/strong\u003e  4-Bolt Vintage-Style\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:  \u003c\/strong\u003eTinted Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cspan\u003eAAA Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInlays:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Micarta White\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Custom Shop Hand-Wound Mike McCready\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMiddle Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Custom Shop Hand-Wound Mike McCready\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Pickup:  \u003c\/strong\u003eCustom Shop Hand-Wound Mike McCready\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls:  \u003c\/strong\u003eMaster Volume, Tone 1.
