From “La Camisa Negra” to “A Dios le Pido,” globally renowned Latin artist Juanes has thrilled the world with his unflinching lyrics and soul-filled guitar playing. Like its namesake, the Juanes Signature Stratocaster was made for chording, single-note playing, and, above all, inspiring versatility. To craft a guitar ready for Juanes' diverse music tastes, Fender started with one of the Grammy winner's favored Fenders: a Stratocaster. Filled with classic Fender tone and merged with cutting-edge features like a 2-point synchronized tremolo, the Juanes Signature Stratocaster starts with an alder body, maple neck, and maple fingerboard to form a tonal basis that’s ready for anything. Furthermore, its duo of Custom Juanes Ultra Noiseless Strat single-coils joins forces with a Custom Juanes Alnico II humbucker ready to deliver modern crunch or classic sparkle through a 5-position pickup switch. Soar through leads or command rhythmic chords, the Fender Juanes Signature Stratocaster will be there by your side.

Built for soulful performance





Juanes has long proclaimed himself a fan of Fender electric guitars. After all, they have a unique talent for transporting musical ideas to the realm of reality ? Sweetwater guitarists can attest to this! Fender started with alder for the body, a tried-and-true Stratocaster body tonewood that’s an excellent tonal companion to a range of music styles. Then they carved its maple neck into a Deep “C” shape to make an excellent grip for choke-free bending and soulful solos. Next, a 10- to 14-inch compound radius maple fingerboard further contributes to the effortless playability of this signature guitar. Furthermore, the Juanes Signature Stratocaster’s 2-point synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles makes it a favorite for players of many genres. Fender even added strap lock buttons to keep this Strat firmly locked down when you’re shredding or getting into the groove.
