Here is an unusual guitar, one of the few Fender models with an F-hole – the Fender Eric Johnson Thinline Signature Stratocaster in Vintage White. This model draws from the historic work of Roger Rossmeisl, a German luthier who was responsible for a number of Rickenbacker’s most popular semi-hollow models before Fender hired him away. One of his first designs became the 1969 Fender Telecaster Thinline.
Grammy award winning and worldwide respected guitarist Eric Johnson knows a thing or two about tone. In 2015 Eric approached Fender about creating a light weight and resonant strat that would complement his playing style and provide his ideal liquid and articulate tone. Two years later a design that combined the tones of his favourite semi hollow bodies and his strat seemed to do the trick. That design became the Fender Eric Johnson Thinline Signature Stratocaster.
The body on the Eric Johnson Thinline Signature Stratocaster is lightweight capped alder with custom chambers and an f hole to go along with the traditional Stratocaster contours. This guitar feels amazingly comfortable and looks stunning. Fenders R&D engineers and Eric worked closely together to create new signature single coil pickup that provides his uniquely articulate sound. The neck profile is a thick “soft V” which has rounded off the normal edges of a traditional V shaped neck which makes for more comfortable rhythm and lead playing. Whether you are an Eric Johnson fan or just a fan of great playing guitars with liquid and articulate tone this guitar is definitely one to check out!
Sold with the original Fender hard shell case.
