When it comes to musical icons there are arguably none bigger than the Fender Stratocaster guitar. This iconic instrument has been played by some of the greatest guitarists known to man, from Jimi Hendrix and Buddy Holly to John Mayer and Kurt Cobain. It remains the choice for lead guitarists across almost every genre, with artists such as H.E.R., Juanes, Rei and Tash Sultana all regular players.
First on sale in 1954, the Stratocaster, or Strat, is celebrating 70 years in the business, and to mark the occasion Fender is releasing seven new special edition models you won't want to miss.
