2008 Fender Custom Shop David Gilmour Stratocaster Relic

A very special guitar from Fender Custom Shop. This one being from the first year of production of this model. This is the Fender David Gilmour Stratocaster Relic in black over three tone sunburst. We have given this guitar a full check over, the trussrod and electronics all work perfectly and frets are in perfect condition. Included is the original Custom Shop David Gilmour hard case and all the case candy, booklet and CD that are still plastic wrapped. The only missing item is the short trem arm.

A cornerstone of Pink Floyd’s revolutionary and incomparable sound, Gilmour’s Black Strat is featured extensively on The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall and his critically-acclaimed 2006 solo effort, On An Island. The Fender Custom Shop worked hand-in-hand with David and his longstanding guitar technician, Phil Taylor, to create his signature model, a reproduction of the Black Strat complete with its unmistakable look, sound and feel.
