Tweed Couch Guitar Therapy Session36- Sweetness of a Strat (Jason)The design of the Fender Stratocaster was the brain child of 4 people: Leo Fender, Bill Carson, George Fullerton, and Freddie Tavares. In 1954, a 25.5 inch scale, curvy, double horned, ash body with a bolt on maple neck was born sporting 3 pickups, 1 volume, 2 tones, a 3 way switch, and 6 tuners.
These instruments have been so loved by their owners that they have been affectionately named like old buddies in the school yard. Names like Clapton’s “Blackie & Brownie”, Malmsteen’s “The Duck”, Stevie Ray’ s “Lenny & Number One”, Harrison’s Rocky, and if you’ll allow it… Van Halen’s “Frankenstrat”
