Description: Fender Dave Murray StratocasterEDIT

Guitarist Dave Murray of seminal U.K. metal heroes Iron Maiden has been banging his head with Fender since the mid ’70s. Murray recently joined forces with Fender to create a signature model based on his own ’57 Stratocaster, previously owned by late, great Free guitarist Paul Kossoff. The Dave Murray Stratocaster guitar boasts a supercharged HSH configuration—a DiMarzio® PAF® 36th Anniversary DP103 neck pickup, a DiMarzio® Super Distortion® DP100 bridge pickup and a Fender vintage-style middle pickup. Other features include a lacquer finish, and a flatter soft V-shaped neck with satin back. Vintage tweed hardshell case included.

From Fender Guitars

Dave Murray bought the 1957 Fender Strat in 1976 after seeing an advertisement in the English magazine Melody Maker. It’s previous owner was Paul Kossoff of Free who had passed away a year earlier in 1975. Dave Murray had to sell “everything he had” to finance the $1400 it was listed for in Melody Maker.
