Eric Johnson Strat with end-'50s specs
For his Fender Eric Johnson Stratocaster RW Lucerne Aqua Firemist, the Austin guitar hero wanted authentic end-'50s specs. Accordingly, the lightweight alder body features the deep contour cut of 1957, while the bolt-on quartersawn maple neck is extremely comfortable in the hand thanks to the "'57 Soft-V" profile and 12" fretboard radius. Last but not least, the thin nitrocellulose finish supports the open and vibrant sound character of the electric guitar.
Eric Johnson single-coil pickups for detailed sounds
Three Fender Eric Johnson single-coil pick ups are used as pickups on the FenderEric Johnson Stratocaster RW Lucerne Aqua Firemist. Developed according to Johnson's exact conception, the pickups have "Vintage Staggered" pole pieces and, depending on their position, Alnico III or Alnico V magnets. Accordingly, at the guitar amplifier they deliver a transparent and highly dynamic vintage sound that translates every playing nuance in detail and harmony. Slightly recessed pickup mounting screws also ensure optimum sound transmission between string, body and pickup.
Vintage style Hardware with high functionality
Last but not least, the Fender Eric Johnson Stratocaster RW Lucerne Aqua Firemist is equipped with high-quality Hardware in Vintage-Style. The bridge here is the classic Fender American Vintage Synchronized Tremolo, which allows smooth string bending. As a special feature, the spring chamber on the back of the body is not closed by a cover. On the headstock, behind the bone nut, six Fender Vintage-Style Staggered tuners also provide accurate and stable tuning. Due to the staggered winding axles, no string tree is needed on the headstock.
