Discover the Limited Edition Masterbuilt John Frusciante Stratocaster® by Fender Custom Shop – a meticulously crafted tribute to the legendary Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist and his iconic 1962 Sunburst Stratocaster®. Built by Senior Masterbuilder Paul Waller, this rare and expertly designed guitar is ideal for collectors, dedicated fans, and serious guitarists who want to capture the soulful tones and historic feel of Frusciante's cherished instrument. Each detail, from the worn lacquer finish to the custom pickups, has been carefully replicated to ensure players experience an authentic piece of rock and roll history.
Frusciante’s original '62 Strat® became an essential part of his sound, known for its distinctive tonal qualities that blend soulful, funky riffs with intricate, expressive playing. This limited-edition recreation captures those nuances with a resonant 2-piece alder body, a period-accurate early-'60s "C" profile rift-sawn maple neck, and a high-grade slab rosewood fingerboard. The finish, made with nitrocellulose lacquer, gives the guitar a naturally aged look, resembling the wear and tear that Frusciante's original guitar endured through decades of iconic performances.
One of the highlights of this model is the trio of Custom Shop Hand-Wound Abigail Ybarra pickups, which replicate the warm, clear, and dynamic tones that Frusciante is famous for. The Ilitch Electronics Hum-Canceling system adds to the tonal clarity, reducing noise and enhancing expressiveness, while the vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge provides smooth playability and tuning stability. These vintage-inspired electronics, combined with the guitar’s premium hardware, deliver the iconic Strat® sound with a modern twist.
This Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt guitar features narrow tall (6105) frets on a 7.25" radius fingerboard, which provides a comfortable feel for chords and smooth bends. The neck is fitted with a bone nut and vintage-style tuners for authentic aesthetics and stable tuning. Each guitar is finished with a 3-ply mint green pickguard, aged white control knobs, and a serialized 4-bolt neck plate, giving players the look and feel of a true vintage masterpiece.
Complete with a certificate of authenticity, the Limited Edition Masterbuilt John Frusciante Stratocaster® is more than just an instrument – it's a collector’s item, a piece of history, and a tribute to one of rock’s most influential guitarists.
