Mike McCready Stratocaster
The Mike McCready Stratocaster captures the unmistakable sound and timeless spirit of one of rock's most enduring and influential bands. Designed in collaboration with the Pearl Jam guitarist, the Mike McCready Stratocaster is the ultimate Strat for any guitarist seeking to channel the potent power and electrifying intensity of this grunge guitar icon.
The Mike McCready Stratocaster features a hand-crafted, heavily Road Worn lacquer finish over an alder body, recreating the battle scars Mike's own Strat has earned over three decades of grueling, sold-out tours and legendary performances. The comfy 9.5" radius slab rosewood fingerboard on a slim "C" maple neck are shaped to match McCready's treasured 1960 Strat, while the custom Mike McCready Stratocaster pickups are voiced to replicate Mike's vintage single-coils for the same timeless tone, passion and energy that define his signature sound. The vintage-style synchronized tremolo, bent-steel saddles and cold-rolled steel block ensure the purest Fender tone and performance.
With its well-worn finish and bold tones, the Mike McCready Stratocaster resonates with the soulful essence of the iconic Strat that has powered Pearl Jam's chart-topping hits and transcendent live performances across countless studios and stages.
