Fender Custom Shop Black Lightning Stratocaster Floyd Rose HSH Heavy Relic Candy Apple Red 8.10 lbs
Fender Custom Shop Wild West Black Lightning Stratocaster Floyd Rose HSH Rosewood Board 22 Frets Heavy Relic Candy Apple Red 8.10 lbs
A Wild West exclusive with an attitude all its own. The Black Lightning Strat HSH takes the classic Strat platform and arms it with high-performance, stage-ready upgrades.
Loaded with a DiMarzio PAF Pro in the neck, a Fat ’50s single coil in the middle, and a DiMarzio Tone Zone in the bridge, this beast covers everything from vintage sparkle to modern punch. The AAA rosewood fingerboard and jumbo 6100 frets offer smooth bends and lightning-fast runs. A quartersawn maple neck with a ‘Dirty Neck’ tint and 12” radius gives you rock-solid feel and modern comfort.
Finished in Heavy Relic Candy Apple Red, the guitar shows off years of earned wear—right out of the case. The Floyd Rose locking tremolo keeps your tuning tight no matter how hard you push it. Built for serious tone and fearless playing.
DiMarzio DP151 PAF Pro Humbucker
The PAF Pro® was created when chops-intensive playing was first starting to happen, and high-gain amps and rack systems were becoming popular. A pickup was needed that combined a lot of presence and “cut” with an open-sounding PAF® vibe. The transparency of its sound lets the PAF Pro® slice through heavy processing, where darker-sounding pickups get lost in the mud of the effects chain. Low notes have both snap and chunk, and there is a spike in the mid-range that gives the pickup a subtle “aw” vowel sound, like a wah-wah pedal stopped in the middle. Treble response is tweaked to produce highs that stand out without getting brittle. The PAF Pro® makes an outstanding neck pickup in almost any guitar, and it’s an exceptional bridge pickup when high output isn’t required.
Magnet: Alnico 5
Resistance: 8.4 Kohm
DiMarzio® Tone Zone DP155 Humbucking
Have you ever heard a bridge pickup that made a guitar sound like a giant mosquito attack? If you’ve run into this problem, The Tone Zone® is the solution. The Tone Zone® is hot enough to qualify as a high-output pickup, but it has a wider dynamic range — hard picking will produce a lot of power, and softer picking will be much cleaner and quieter. It’s got tremendous bass and low-mid response to reinforce the bottom end and make the overall sound bigger. The highest single notes have depth, and chords sound huge. Patented dual-resonance coils reproduce more overtones than you’d expect from such a fat-sounding pickup. It makes a great match with an Air Norton™, PAF Joe™, or PAF Pro®, and split-coil mode produces an excellent single-coil sound as well.
