There’s something unmistakable about an Eric Johnson Strat the moment you pick one up. It doesn’t feel like a standard production Strat — it feels intentional. Balanced, refined, and almost “broken in” from the first chord. This 2005–present Fender Eric Johnson Stratocaster in White Blonde has that exact vibe: articulate, resonant, and effortlessly musical.
Visually, this one tells a story. The White Blonde nitro finish shows finish checking and hairline cracks throughout, which honestly gives it a killer vintage-leaning look. It’s the kind of checking that’s hard to notice from a few feet away, but once you see it up close, it adds character rather than distraction — very “played, loved, and aged naturally.” Beyond that, there are a few small bumps here and there, all purely cosmetic and consistent with careful use over time.
Structurally and functionally, this guitar is in very good condition. The neck is straight, frets feel great, and it plays effortlessly thanks to a recent setup. The maple fretboard has that smooth, fast Eric Johnson carve that just melts into your hand — not chunky, not skinny, just right.
Plugged in, it delivers exactly what these are known for:
- glassy, piano-like cleans
- a warm, vocal neck pickup
- a bridge that bites but never gets harsh
It’s classic Strat tone with a refined, almost hi-fi clarity — dynamic, touch-responsive, and incredibly expressive.
It comes with a Fender premium soft case, providing solid protection while keeping things lightweight and practical.
If you’re after an Eric Johnson Strat that already has some soul baked in — one that looks cooler the more you play it — this one’s a great example.
Like all my guitars, this one’s been cared for and dialed in—no guesswork, no surprises, just a great instrument that’s ready to play. I personally inspect and test every guitar before it ships, making sure it’s in the exact condition I’d want to receive myself. These guitars come from me, not a shop—each one gets the kind of attention and care only a real guitar lover gives. Ships fast and insured.
