Finally a great tribute to one of rocks most iconic Strats, the 1961 Fiesta Red Gary Moore Tribute Stratocaster!
Don't know much about it yet but coming from the Fender Custom Shop. They have done replica GM Strat's unofficially before but this is with the blessing of the estate and hopefully from a fully documented real guitar!
I can't afford it whatever it costs but am glad to see this!!

Here is a video from the early nineties showing what a tone monster this Strat is:

Would go kinda with the other Irish guy sig strat, eh Ror..., errr Dave?

Tomorrow we will know what Fender is bringing out. I guess the fiesta strat will be pretty pricy. Anyway I'm still a big fan of Gary Moore's Music. It makes no different, which guitar he was playing. Always you can hear his own tone. It is very respectfully that Fender dedicate him a Tribute Stratocaster.

Let then the string ring on that Gary Moore Tribute Stratocaster

The price for that master piece of wood is of course amazingliy high, about 12'000 bucks (US$)

Ha ha, I like how they put the part about free shipping after the $23,999 .......... like that might be a deal breaker or something
