Fender Custom Shop Robin Trower Tribute Strat

[hippietim]

Just got this. This is 1 of 100 Strats made to commemorate the 30th anniversary of "Bridge of Sighs". It's awesome! It's beautiful, it sounds fabulous, it feels great - needs to be tweaked with my strings and bridge setup, etc. of course. They are also doing a "production" Trower signature Strat as well. This Tribute model is basically the same as the '73 Strat Trower used to record Bridge of Sighs.

It came with a custom shop Fulltone Dejavibe as well which sounds amazing as well.

Like I told the guy when I ordered it, I've been waiting 20 years for this guitar. I am very happy. It came with a DVD with Robin and the Fender custom shop master builder that did them.

Nice Tim. I had a 73 strat that looked just like that! Of course it was beat to hell. Wish I could get that one back.

Very cool guitar...I play Day of the Eagle and Too Rollin Stoned all the time..he was a great guitarist despite the obvious heavy Jimi influence...

Re: Fender Custom Shop Robin Trower Tribute Strat

the neck is a medium "U" shape - definitely not beefy - feels pretty much the way i remember those.
