Full Description
View Full DescriptionA gorgeous Relic'd beauty
Built like it’s Hendrix's own. Displaying a fabulous Journeyman Relic finish, the Voodoo Child looks like it's seen a few stages since the '60s. Period correct detail, ageing and character marks adorn every inch of the guitar and give it the authentic feel of the Woodstock legend. From the small scuffs on the body paintwork to the gorgeous vintage-yellow colouration of the fretboard, it's the real deal.
Riff innovation
Play with freedom. Play with Jimi-style authenticity. On a flat-sawn maple neck that's been carved into his '66 "Oval C" backshape, you're going to fire out riffs in comfort and style. Affording you plenty of room on the board and providing a seamless manoeuvrability around the scales, you'll be mastering Jimi's signature songs with ease. As for the feel? It's finished in a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, so it's going have that retro-Fender touch found on the instruments of old.
Voodoo child sonics
The tone of a music titan. Many have tried to replicate the sizzling twang of Hendrix's iconic guitar, and now Fender's Custom Shop have succeeded. Doing the hard work of replicating the voicings with expert precision, these pickup masters have created hand-wound '69 Strat single coils which sing with a vintage warmth and clarity. Ideal for channelling the punchy blues sonics that Hendrix made his forte, the transparency and balanced tonal range allow for expansive musical creativity.
Vintage accuracy
Everything you would expect on a vintage Strat - upside down! Jimi's signature leftie style was using a flipped right-handed Strat with the strings reversed. This topsy-turvy stance was immediately noticeable and eye-catching for many viewers, and now it's available for right-handed players! Together with a slew of Custom Shop period appointments, like the two piece select alder body with nitro lacquer finish, bone nut and vintage-style 6-saddle tremolo bridge, it'll feel like you're holding the original.
