2007 Fender Mark Knopfler Signature Stratocaster, Hot Rod Red

A beautiful condition Fender Mark Knopfler Signature Stratocaster in Hot Rod Red. Designed as a tribute to Knopfler’s famous red Strat, this model takes the classic early-’60s Stratocaster formula and puts it in an easily accessible and player-specific format. The lightweight ash body gives the guitar a resonant, responsive feel, while the striking Hot Rod Red finish provides the instantly recognisable look associated with one of the most celebrated Strat players of all time. The neck features a tinted ’62 “C” profile maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and 21 medium jumbo frets, offering a comfortable vintage-inspired feel with a slightly more modern playing experience. Fender/Gotoh vintage-style tuners and an American Vintage synchronized tremolo complete the classic specification. Fitted with a trio of Texas Special single-coil pickups, this Strat delivers a slightly hotter take on the traditional Strat sound, with increased output, clarity and midrange presence. The pickups retain the snap and articulation expected from a Stratocaster while adding enough drive and character to work equally well for clean, bluesy tones or more pushed amplifier settings. A superb Artist Series Strat with great playability, a distinctive finish and a specification that makes it much more than just a collector’s piece. A fantastic option for Mark Knopfler fans or anyone looking for a high-quality, vintage-inspired Stratocaster with a little extra character.
