Lincoln Brewster's technique, tone, and musicianship have catapulted his status as a sought-after session guitarist and respected artist. Based on Lincoln's customized '57 reissues, the Fender Lincoln Brewster Stratocaster is built around a contoured ash body. Three DiMarzio single-coil pickups take the guitar's already stellar acoustic tone and inject it with ear-grabbing, vintage-tinged sonic textures ? with zero hum. You also get a treble bleed circuit for crystalline clarity when lowering your volume, along with an active mid-boost, which bolsters your playing with chunky, humbucker-like fatness. The Lincoln Brewster Strat's Soft "V"-shaped maple neck ensures an effortless playing experience, while its ultra-playable compound-radius fingerboard supplies lightning-fast playability. Furthermore, a 2-point synchronized tremolo and vintage-style locking tuners give the Lincoln Brewster Strat rock-solid reliability. Any player searching for a vintage-style Strat with well-thought-out modern tweaks will appreciate the meticulous design of the Fender Lincoln Brewster Stratocaster.

A premium Strat specimen





There may not be a model of solidbody electric guitar that is more ingrained in modern culture than the Fender Stratocaster. Its finely sculpted body, groundbreaking tremolo design, and a clear-as-a-bell trio of single-coil pickups come together in an instrument that is embraced by players in every genre of music around the world. This Strat is the direct descendent of all those iconic guitars, solicitously modified with acclaimed Lincoln Brewster's preferred tweaks. Ask any player at Sweetwater, the Lincoln Brewster Stratocaster boasts all the features, playability, and versatility that define the instrument, along with player-friendly features that you're sure to appreciate.





Vintage tone with zero hum





The Lincoln Brewster Stratocaster comes loaded with a trio of DiMarzio single-coil pickups. It has an Area 61 in the bridge and an Area 58 in the middle and neck. What makes these pickups so cool is that they carry a tone of vintage qualities. The pickups from the '50s and early '60s had a unique tonality ? steely yet somehow woody-sounding. With the Area series, you get it. And you get it from the Area 61 with no hum and less magnet-pull. When paired with the Area 58s, the combination can go all the way from Nashville to Texas. This guitar also includes an onboard treble bleed circuit that keeps its tone clear and present when lowering your volume. What's more, the Lincoln Brewster Strat adds an active mid-boost that gives you the extra meat you might expect from a humbucker.





Upgraded 2-point synchronized tremolo





A Fender Strat wouldn't be a Fender Strat without the non-locking tremolo design that turned the world on its ear in the early 1950s. The Lincoln Brewster Stratocaster boasts an updated take on that design that meets the needs of today's players. Its 2-point construction makes action adjustments a breeze, while providing plenty of stability. And the pop-in arm mechanism is extremely convenient, holds the tremolo arm from having too much play, and allows you to adjust the tension on the arm.
