Fender and U2 guitarist The Edge have teamed up to create the Edge Strat:

Enthralling millions worldwide with his acclaimed textural guitar work—as well as his knack for writing catchy riffs and hooks—U2 guitarist, The Edge, relies on his trusty Strat® guitar to sculpt his unique sound. Designed in close collaboration with Fender®, The Edge Strat is his new constant companion, replacing his favored vintage Fender instruments onstage in arenas around the world.

The guitar features:

  • Co-designed with The Edge; The Edge signature on front of the large ‘70s-style headstock
  • Three single-coil pickups; special Fender Custom Stagger Fat 50s neck and middle pickups, DiMarzio FS-1 bridge pickup
  • Quartersawn maple neck with “C”-shaped profile and 9.5” maple fingerboard
  • Two-point synchronized tremolo bridge with pop-in arm; locking tuners
  • Includes a custom black and gray tweed hardshell case
