2007 Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster with Scalloped Rosewood Fingerboard Vintage White

Up for sale, here’s a Mint condition almost unused Fender Artist Series Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Stratocaster in a stunning Vintage White finish, with its original tweed hard case and all case candy.*-

If you’re reading this, you know who Yngwie Malmsteen is and this is historically one of the first Fender signature instruments still in production since the late ’80s, and you know it has a scalloped fretboard neck (rosewood in this case). This guitar was based on his original early ’70s Strat with scalloped neck with Super jumbo frets and brass nut. A big part of Malmsteen’s technique is enabled by a scalloped fingerboard on which the fingers make contact only with the strings and not with the wood of the fingerboard itself. This allows a lighter touch, greater speed, and improved grip on the strings, facilitating effortless string bending, pull-offs, and tapping technique.

Weight is 7.4 Lbs. Pretty lightweight for a ’70s style Stratocaster.

The 2007 model comes with a DiMarzio Pickups set consisting of:

Bridge Pickup: DiMarzio HS-3 Stack, Big Logo
Middle Pickup: DiMarzio YJM Pickup, Big Logo
Neck Pickup: DiMarzio YJM Pickup, Big Logo

It comes with a three-way pickup switching, giving you the bridge pickup alone, the middle pickup alone, and the neck pickup alone. Controls: Master Volume, Tone (neck), No-Load Tone Control (mid, bridge) .

The instrument is in Excellent condition and it’s almost entirely free from blemishes and other visual defects and have been played or used with the utmost care. Almost a new guitar that has been played just a couple of times. The pickguard and tremolo cover still have the stickers and plastic from factory.

The Guitar comes with its original Tweed (G&G) vintage reissue hard case including all tags and Fender certificates, Allen wrenches, case keys and tremolo arm. The guitar has just been set with low action and comes with a fresh set of D’addario 9 – 42″ Nickel. It plays amazingly well throughout the neck.

It’ll be professionally packed and fully insured to Continental US only. Local pickup in LA is also available at no cost.
