Fender® has introduced the latest addition to its Artist Signature Series, the new Mark Knopfler Stratocaster. Mark came to Fender® and asked them to create a guitar that utilizes designs from his favorite vintage Stratocaster® guitars. Features a '57 Strat® guitar lightweight ash body and a vintage tinted ‘62 "C"-shape maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and 21 medium jumbo frets. His unmistakable tone comes from three Texas Special™ single-coil Strat® pickups and a five-way switch. Fender/Gotoh vintage tuners and an American vintage synchronized tremolo system round out this sultan of swing.
