The Albert Hammond Jr Stratocaster celebrates the unique sound and iconic style that continues to define generations of young guitarists starting bands in the back of their garages. When it came time for Albert Hammond Jr to lay down the guitar tracks for The Strokes catalog as well as his solo work, which includes the critically acclaimed album, Francis Trouble, he reached for his 1985 reissue of a 72 Strat. As a unique touch weve replicated Hammonds customized pickups switching: pickup switch position four activates the neck and bridge pickups in tandem, while positions one and three are reversed from the traditional layout. Hammonds signature graces the back of the large 70s-style headstock, while other 70s-inspired features include bullet truss rod nut, 3-bolt F-stamped neck plate with period-correct Micro-Tilt adjustment and a 70s-era logo.
