今やギターは楽器の中のひとつというだけでなく、多くの人々に崇められる存在でもある。それを操るギタリストの、人間としての魅力が大きく関わり、楽器に魂が宿るということだろう。Nowadays guitars are not only just musical instruments, but they are also objects of worship for many people. The attraction of the guitarist who manipulates a particular guitar is greatly co-related, and his soul will dwell on the instrument. It's really interesting that, as well as being great as just an instrument, the history of the guitar and its owners adds to the appeal of each instrument. With that in mind, please take a look at the following FENDER electric guitar story
In 1965, Jeff Beck's 1954 Esquire, which was received from Walker Brothers' guitarist John Mouse, became Jeff's trademark. In the 60's Yardbirds' high peak, with a guitar that had not yet been dyed to anyone's preferred color, he gave it as a present to his friend Seymour Duncan after leaving a masterpiece that laid the foundation for innovative and rock guitars. Seymour Duncan loaned it to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, and in 2006 the Fender Custom Shop released a replica and it became a topic topic.

No doubt one of the world's most famous electric guitars "Blackie". Originally, Eric Clapton bought three '50s Stratocasters at a store in the US, and he started to combined and remodeled the parts. For about 12 years, he had been recording around the world with only one guitar, leaving several famous solo works. Clapton then auctioned it and donated the proceeds to a self-established rehabilitation facility. Guitar Center bought the guitar, and the winning bid was about $ 1 million.

I would like to make it clear-David Gilmour's 1954 Stratocaster is by no means the first in the world. But this serial number "0001" is a pretty distinctive and makes it an unusual Strat. It was originally owned by Seymour Duncan and was handed over to Phil Taylor, who served as guitar technician for David Gilmour in the mid-1970s. A few years later, when Taylor needed funding for the down payment of a house, Gilmour - although the details are unknown - bought it. The guitar, which he has used to perform with Paul McCartney and Bryan Ferry, and has participated in numerous Pink Floyd recordings, has been around since 1977.

The Strat was originally a custom sonic blue finish with from the early 1960s, before George Harrison painted it in psychedelic colors. The Stratocaster was used during the period between June 25, 1967, when "All You Need Is Love" was aired on the world television to the time when the exciting and famous album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" was released in the spring of 1967. A radical movement began to appear around the colors, and George also began painting Strats using fluorescent colors and nail polish. When George put the name "Rocky" on his strat in 1969, some more colors were added. The Strat never George's side.

Jimi Hendrix had brought about a rock revolution, drawing out the full potential of the Stratocaster. The most well-known of the Strats he used was the 1968 "Olympic White" model used at Woodstock in August 1969. Perhaps the spectators who were there experienced the hottest performance ever of "Stars and Stripes Forever". The Strat is now on display at the EMP Museum in Seattle, where Hendrix was born and raised.
Stevie Ray Vaughan ran his life like a "Texas Hurricane". Having left a number of great performances due to its superhuman strat performances, he is the world's top blues guitarist who has been revered and has influenced many guitarists. Stevie had used a few Strats, but his best favorite was his 1963 "Number One" model. He purchased his guitar in Austin, Texas in the mid-1970s and had been composing and playing the world's most powerful and beloved Electric Texas Blues until August 1990, when he passed away. This Strat is now in the hands of his older brother, Jimmie Vaughan.
