Strictly Limited Edition of only 100 Worldwide

One of the greatest guitarists of all time, Stevie Ray Vaughan, was and forever will be remembered for his soulful music, his revolutionary playing style and for his distinctive, beat-up Fender® Stratocaster® guitar. Affectionately known as “Number One”, this guitar in Stevie’s hands helped bring Texas blues to the forefront of popular music in the 1980s, and together, Stevie and “Number One” inspired a new generation of musicians both young and old to pick up a Stratocaster and try to recreate some of their magic.

In honor of the legendary guitarist and his guitar, the world renowned Fender Custom Shop is proud to offer a Limited Edition Stevie Ray Vaughan Tribute Model “Number One” Stratocaster Guitar. These guitars have been commissioned to the Custom Shop by the estate of Stevie Ray Vaughan, and only 100 replicas will ever be built.

Strictly Limited Edition hand made replica of Stevie Ray Vaughan 's beloved "Number 1". Each Master Built by John Cruz in Fender's Custom Shop and it is accurate to the very minutest detail in its replication (right down to sticker peeling up behind the bridge!). Arguably this is THE most sought after and collectible guitar ever produced in the Fender Custom Shop.

Commissioned in 2004 and a strictly limited production run of just 100 "clones". The production of Stevie’s famous “Number One” has taken Fender's now famous 'relic-ing' process to an unprecedented and extreme level!  A team from Fender comprised of Richard McDonald, George Blanda, and Mike Eldred visited guitarist Jimmie Vaughan in Austin, Texas, were enlisted to “dissect” his brother’s guitar, and to scientifically record its every aspect—from measuring the output of each of the three single-coil pickups and the tension of their copper wire, to digitally weighing each piece of wood and hardware, to measuring the body and neck shapes and their contours, and to using calipers to measure every nick, scratch and wear mark on the guitar! It is SO authentic that Mike Edred made the statement: “Just about the only thing we won’t be able to reproduce is Stevie’s playing ability … mojo not included!”

This very special instrument was made on a pre-order basis in a Limited Edition of only 100 guitars globally, and will never be reproduced by Fender again.  Only 4 made it to Australia.
