The Fender Artist Series The Edge Stratocaster in Black is a signature model designed in collaboration with U2’s legendary guitarist, The Edge. This guitar is a modern twist on the classic Stratocaster, built to deliver the distinct, shimmering tones and versatility that The Edge is known for. With its sleek black finish and chrome hardware, the guitar exudes a minimalist, stylish aesthetic that matches the guitarist’s signature look and stage presence.

At the heart of The Edge Stratocaster’s tone is a trio of specially voiced pickups. It features a DiMarzio FS-1 bridge pickup for punchy, high-output tones, combined with two vintage-style Fender Custom Shop Fat '50s single-coils in the neck and middle positions. This combination provides a wide tonal palette, from warm, rounded neck tones perfect for clean rhythms to the sharp, articulate bridge pickup for searing lead lines. The pickups are wired through a modern 5-way selector switch, allowing for versatile sound options, ideal for the diverse sonic landscapes U2’s music demands.

The guitar's alder body offers a balanced resonance, while the modern "C"-shaped maple neck ensures comfortable playability. The neck also features a 9.5" radius rosewood fingerboard, which strikes a perfect balance between vintage and modern playing styles, offering both comfort for chord work and smoothness for bending notes. The 2-point synchronized tremolo bridge with bent steel saddles provides stability and allows for expressive vibrato, while maintaining the guitar's tuning even during heavy use.

With its fusion of vintage tone and modern precision, the Fender Artist Series The Edge Stratocaster is a versatile instrument that caters to both The Edge’s signature sound and the needs of a wide range of guitarists. Whether you're aiming for clean, delay-heavy tones or punchy rock sounds, this Stratocaster delivers the clarity and power necessary to cover many musical styles. It's a guitar built for professionals but designed to inspire any player seeking that iconic Strat sound with a modern edge.
