Fender Artist Series Cory Wong Stratocaster, Sapphire Blue Transparent

Take your musical journey to new heights with the stylish and high-quality Artist Series Cory Wong Stratocaster Electric Guitar in Sapphire Blue Transparent. This innovative electric guitar is a tribute to the renowned guitarist, producer, and arranger Cory Wong, known for his exceptional funk chops and inventive lead work. His soulful performances with Vulfpeck and Grammy-nominated solo work have earned him a dedicated fan base and sold-out arena performances. This Stratocaster is a thoughtful modification of Cory's favorite Fender, designed to meet the needs of the funk master himself. The Sapphire Blue Transparent satin lacquer finish not only recreates the look and feel of Cory's original Strat but also adds a unique and eye-catching touch to your music gear. The guitar features a scaled-down alder body, slightly smaller than a typical Stratocaster, paired with an American Ultra Modern "D" neck and sculpted body contours. This combination ensures a sublimely comfortable playing experience, making it a versatile choice for both stage performances and studio sessions. The Cory Wong Stratocaster is equipped with a set of Seymour Duncan Cory Wong Clean Machine pickups, providing the classic Strat quack and chime, fine-tuned to achieve his distinctive tone. The maple neck with subtly modified headstock shape, rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges, and a compound 10-14" radius add to its high-quality construction. The guitar also features a vintage-style 6-screw synchronized Tremolo, deluxe locking tuners for improved tuning stability and easy string changes, and a push/push pot on Tone 2 that bypasses the 5-way switch and defaults to "Position 4". As a bonus, the guitar comes with a Cory Wong hair tie for muting the tremolo springs to achieve Cory's rhythm tone, a rubber straplock washer set, and a custom neck plate. This durable and innovative Stratocaster is more than just an instrument; it's a testament to Cory Wong's musical legacy.
