Fender EOB Sustainer Stratocaster Electric Guitar - Olympic White

Ed O’Brien’s ambient, ethereal and orchestral guitar style is an essential part of the sonic identity of Radiohead. We partnered with this groundbreaking player to create the EOB Stratocaster — an instrument as unique as his sound.

 

• Seymour Duncan® JB Jr. humbucking bridge pickup, Texas Special single-coil Stratocaster middle pickup, Fernandes® Sustainer neck pickup
• "10/56 V"-shaped maple neck with 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard
• Custom "Flower of Life" neck plate; vintage-style hardware
• Includes deluxe gig bag

 

This inspiring guitar is perfect for creating lush, layered soundscapes and finding your own creative voice. The EOB Stratocaster offers a wide palette of tones thanks to its Seymour Duncan® JB Jr. humbucking bridge pickup, Texas Special™ single-coil middle pickup and Fernandes® Sustainer unit in the neck position. The Sustainer works some technical magic to create near-infinite sustain on one or more strings, making it easy to achieve thick, textured sounds. The Sustainer’s controls include an on/ off switch, intensity control and three-position switch to select the mode: Fundamental-only, Harmonic-only or Blend.
