U2’s guitarist, The Edge, is world-renowned as a sonic architect—his peerless mastery of sonic textures has become a touchstone of modern guitar playing. Working closely with Fender, The Edge co-designed a guitar and amplifier to satisfy his discerning ear and meet his needs on stage and in the studio.

A tribute to the Strat used to create U2’s groundbreaking early hits, the Edge Strat bears his signature on the ‘70s-style headstock, marking it as his weapon of choice. The custom-crafted pickups feature flattened pole pieces, altering the string response to The Edge’s personal taste.

An elegant guitar for a refined player, this guitar combines the classic curves, appointments and effortless playability of classic Strat guitars with modern enhancements and materials to create a player’s dream instrument—a flexible music machine with timeless Fender style and authentic sound. Don’t delay, add The Edge Strat to your sonic toolbox. Includes a special black and gray tweed hardshell case
