Released in late December 2016 this is a very rare Pete Townshend Limited Edition Stratocaster. Fender only made 75 units for global distribution with 45 for the USA and 30 for Europe/Japan. All 75 guitars were instantly sold out and Fender didn’t announce anything about tis model or release it on their web site until after all the guitars were all sold out. This one is in as new mint unplayed condition in the original box with all factory hang tags, customer care kit, strap, The Who Back Stage Pass, original shipping carton, and The Who picture book. Known for his pummeling guitar work with The Who, Pete Townshend introduced a new sonic and visual vocabulary to rock ‘n’ roll with his masterful playing.The Fender Custom Shop is proud to present the Limited Edition Pete Townshend Stratocaster to players and fans. One of Townshend’s hallmarks as a songwriter is his use of intertwined electric and acoustic guitar sounds. At his request, Fender incorporated a method for him to easily access both voices without switching guitars. A two-post Fishman™ Powerbridge tremolo bridge provides a palette of acoustic and hybrid acoustic/electric tones for Townshend to easily access as dictated by his needs. The Townshend Limited Edition Stratocaster uses three Lace Sensor Gold™ single-coil pickups for noise-free performance inspired by classic, crisp, bell-like Fender tone, boosted by an onboard Fender preamp. Designed to meet Townshend’s wide-ranging needs while performing his classic catalog, this instrument is the perfect palette for guitarists who need both acoustic and electric sounds without switching instruments. Blending modern musical technology with Fender’s timeless guitar design, the Limited Edition Pete Townshend Stratocaster is perfect for players who need a flexible guitar that will easily stand up to a few windmilled chords while sounding great all night long.
