This Fender Custom Shop Jeff Beck Stratocaster Masterbuilt by Todd Krause in Grafitti Yellow is brand-new! There is no better Jeff Beck Strat to own than a Todd Krause, Masterbuilt version. Considering Todd was building for Jeff for quite some time before his passing, it's easy to say this guitar is fit for The King, himself!
We all know Jeff Beck was not from this planet. You need a serious guitar to pull off the Wizardry that he was capable of. His Strat is a real Hot Rod with a two-point tremolo, Wilkinson Nut, and Locking tuners that all help ensure no matter how far up or down you push or pull that trem arm, the thing returns to pitch!
Todd Krause builds for some of the world's most renowned players and for great reason… his instruments are always inspiring, always dressed to impress, and always sound incredible. The guitar is loaded with 3 Hot Noiseless Pickups that stay noise-free regardless of how much gain is applied. They still retain a classic single coil sound that can provide all the spank, quack, and shimmer you'll need. A master volume, 2 tone controls, and a 5-way pickup selector switch cover the electronic controls.
The neck on the Beck is made from rift-sawn Maple and topped with a Rosewood Fingerboard. The neck profile is a chunky, full-feeling C shape with a 9.5" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets for great playability. Other key features include Sperzel Locking Tuners, a Wilkinson Nut, and a reduced neck heel for easier top fret access. The Jeff Beck Strat features 1.6875" Nut Width which is a touch wider than most. If you like a little extra wiggle room between strings, this is a great feeling neck.
