When many people think of an electric guitar, this is the one that leaps to mind. The Stratocaster is one of the world's most popular guitars and is an elegantly versatile creation.

Sleek and stylish aesthetics, smooth playing and tonally versatile. At its heart the Stratocaster remains a fantastic instrument, producing unmistakable sound with a timeless design.
