A signature model designed by one of the pioneers of metal
Guitarist Dave Murray of seminal U.K. metal heroes Iron Maiden has been laying it down with a Fender
since the mid '70s. Murray recently joined forces with Fender to create a signature electric guitar based on his own '57 Stratocaster,
previously owned by the late, guitarist Paul Kossoff from the band Free. The Dave Murray Stratocaster guitar boasts a supercharged
humbucker/single-coil/humbucker configuration—a DiMarzio PAF 36th Anniversary DP103 neck pickup, a DiMarzio Super Distortion
DP100 bridge pickup, and a Fender vintage-style middle pickup. The Fender Dave Murray Guitar includes a lacquer finish, and
a flatter, soft V-shaped neck with satin back.
