2008-09-18 15:17 CEST FENDER® CUSTOM SHOP - DAVID GILMOUR SIGNATURE SERIES STRATOCASTER® FENDER® CUSTOM SHOP ANNOUNCES DAVID GILMOUR SIGNATURE SERIES STRATOCASTER®GUITAR AVAILABLE AT SELECT RETAILERS WORLDWIDE ON SEPT. 22, 2008 SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (July 29, 2008) - David Gilmour and the Fender Custom Shop are extremely proud to announce the highly anticipated release of one of the most iconic musical instruments of the past 50 years-the David Gilmour Signature Series Stratocaster® guitar. Based on Gilmour's famous "Black Strat®" guitar, the instrument will be available at select Fender retailers worldwide beginning Sept. 22, 2008. A cornerstone of Pink Floyd's incomparably revolutionary sound, Gilmour's Black Strat is featured extensively on The DarkSide of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall and his critically acclaimed 2006 solo effort, On An Island. The Fender Custom Shop worked hand-in-hand with Gilmour and his longtime guitar technician, Phil Taylor, to create this signature model, a detailed reproduction of the Black Strat-complete in its unmistakable look, sound and feel. Gilmour bought the original instrument in May 1970 from Manny's Music in New York. The guitar's first Pink Floyd recorded appearance came on the group's fifth album, Atom Heart Mother. It subsequently became Gilmour's main guitar for live performances and studio work. The new reproduction-the David Gilmour Signature Series Stratocaster guitar- features an alder body, black over three-color sunburst finish, a black pickguard, a one-piece straight-grain maple neck, custom pickups and Gilmour's now-infamous electronics and shortened vintage tremolo arm. Beautiful, powerful, unique and as idiosyncratic as Gilmour's playing, the guitar will be produced by the Fender Custom Shop in N.O.S. (new old stock) and Relic® versions. The David Gilmour Signature Series Stratocaster guitar comes with a custom case, an Evidence high-end guitar cable, Gilmour's three-disc Live in Gdansk CD/DVD set and Taylor's 2007 book about the guitar's history, The Black Strat. The first 500 guitars sold in either finish option will include a limited edition, signed copy of The Black Strat book, autographed by Phil Taylor. About Fender Musical Instruments Corporation Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC) is a leading, global musical instruments company whose comprehensive portfolio of brands includes Fender®, Squier®, Gretsch®, Jackson®, Charvel®, EVH®, and Groove Tubes®, among others.

10 Replicating the Black
Pages 186-208 (26-04-10) 18/5/10 17:05 Page 188 10 REPLICATING THE BLACK FENDER DAVID GILMOUR SIGNATURE MODEL David had refused previous requests from Fender to copy his guitar, however, he was now assured that a definitive, high quality replica of his Black Stratocaster could be achieved at a cost that was affordable to both fans and guitar players. In October 2006 Mike Eldred (head of Fender Custom Shop) and Todd Krause (Fender master builder) arrived in England to dissect, measure and take specific details in order to make a prototype replica of the Black Strat. Several months later a specially adapted Stratocaster test guitar arrived with five pickguards, each fitted with sets of different pickups. These were changeable within seconds to enable pickup comparisons to be easily made. In April 2007 the first prototype of the Black Strat arrived in England. Overall, it was found to be a good replication, requiring but a few changes. David compared his original Black Strat to the prototype and the different pickups in the test guitar to find the closest match. Over the next few months, three further modified prototypes followed for approval. Before Fender would be allowed to begin production, the guitar had to meet David’s high standards and be the best replica possible.
