Custom Shop Jeff Beck Signature Stratocaster construction

Beck's playing is known for its subtlety. He doesn't rely on a hard plectrum and super-fast scales up and down the neck. Instead he caresses the instrument with his fingers to create all kinds of sounds that fuse together in a melody that touches your very soul. The neck's thin C profile has a rounded heel that allows easier access to the higher frets. A 2-point tremolo ensures stability and lets you add atmospheric vibrato effects to your playing. To prevent unwanted noises, this Custom Shop model is fitted with three Noiseless Dual-Coil pickups. Changing strings is easy thanks to the clever Sperzel TrimLok machine heads that eliminate the need for multiple string wraps.

Jeff Beck

Geoffrey Arnold 'Jeff' Beck began his career when he replaced Eric Clapton in The Yardbirds. His innovative style can be heard on songs like 'Heart Full of Soul' and 'Shape of Things', which features his unique use of overdrive and feedback. He later formed the Jeff Beck Group where he worked with future legends like Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), Keith Moon (The Who) and singer Rod Stewart. His long and varied career is littered with peaks and troughs, but his talent has never been in question. He is frequently near the top when it comes to 'greatest guitarists of all time' lists. He has also been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame twice, once with The Yardbirds and once as a solo artist; Jeff Beck is without doubt one of the most influential guitarists in the history of rock music.
