Fender Dave Murray Signature Stratocaster! - The Iron Maiden Legends Latest Strat With Fender!

[@rickycompton2610]

This is a killer strat just wish Fender would reissue his black strat with the Dimarzio pickups and big headstock to me that’s the guitar I always remember him playing

[@Ottophil]

Yeah that sounds like it would be impossible to replicate with aftermarket mods

[@JohnnyGuitaristOfficial]

Nice, yeah buddy...definitely has to have those nice juicy dimarzio pickups

[@LOOSEbowelz]

@Ricky Compton was actually the smaller headstock on that Strat...

[@flaviopace4171]

I’m totally agree with you. It’s a nice guitar this Mexican sunburst signature and it does its job completely. But I hope they will bring back the original American 57 strat with Dimarzio. It’s unfair that when it was on the market 10 years ago, I didn’t have money to buy it, and now that I could afford, it is out of stock for the market 😭

[@Stitsel]

@@LOOSEbowelz that's what I was gonna say.....

Dave Murray is the reason I picked up a guitar in 1986 and started playing. I'm a huge Iron Maiden fan. Thanks for the video.

I liked the first Strat he had on the first albums with regular Dimarzio Super Distortion in the bridge and PAF in the neck along with metal rings.

I agree, a guitar that's so f'ugly it's somehow beautiful again.

[@Mkemcz]

As always, Dagan can sell you anything and shred your face off while he's at it. Great presentation and phenomenal playing! \m/

[@wvc5150]

I’ve owned one of these for several years, although I swapped the rosewood board for a maple board neck. I love it, it’s very versatile and seriously meaty when using high gain. It’s beautiful and an absolute beast at the same time. If you can find one, I highly recommend picking one up, no matter the style of music you’re into playing. Cheers.

[@tonefish3825]

We need a service industry for great players. I need Deegan to come and play my guitars. So that I could hear, "These guitars are great, flippin' fantastic!" every now and again.

[@sunnytaufiq07]

Seriously... This is an amazing Strat. Last week my son tried he was in love with this Strat. And he played Maiden songs within the shop with 50w Fender Mustang. He was blown away. And the price was massive too...

[@angusorvid8840]

The first time I played a Hot Rail, around '86, I thought it was a mini Bill Lawrence 500. Quite a powerful little pickup. I put one in my strat so I didn't have to play my Les Paul which was backbreakingly heavy. It made my strat a lot less stratty, and that was the point.

[@rohantiwari7801]

My hero. Dave Murray.

[@allanh46]

I saw it in the fender shop up the road. It stood out from the rest they had on the shelf. I loved the pearl pickguard and the natural wood finish. It really stood out in person.

[@icu469]

Nice for the heavy stuff. I have Fender strat with 3 DiMarzio dual rail pickups. A large percentage of your tone comes from the amp you use as well.

[@saitenhexer]

My favorite Instrument for 5 years now 👍👍👍👍

[@vinaymulukutla358]

I just bought one of these and got it delivered today. Such a rock solid guitar and it plays like butter. It is definitely one of the best heavy metal guitars of today, I mean it was co-designed by the main guitarist of Iron Maiden, how much more metal can you get than that in a guitar?

[@jasong546]

Such a great guitar and Dave is a hero of a player for many people including me. Up the irons!

[@rocklandsally]

I built mine .. sunburst fender Strat.. added the pickups.. just normal wiggle stick.. added shiny pick guard.. love it.. but I still suck at playing..ool

Some lovely tones there

[@scottpeters5260]

Just bought a Japanese Reissue Strat. Brand New just like you walked into a Music Store in 1969 and said give me a Sunburst Strat. It's a 1969 Sunburst 4 Bolt no Skunk Stripe . Rosewood neck 9.5 radius. Has the Big Headstock of course, with the Iconic FENDER STRATOCASTER WITH SYCHRONIZED TREMELO WATER MARK DECAL. ADDING A Black DAVE MURRAY LOADED PICKGUARD. NO Hum nice and Meaty. My next one will be Maple Neck.

[@Deadhansome]

That sounds unreal!! Growls like a growly thing with growly bits on it!

[@philgreen-f6q]

What a versatile sound monster. I couldn't bring my self to sell what I have to get one. But would be nice to add to my collection. But will have to stay on the hanger for moment.

[@apologeticsguy]

Love that rock tone! Considering this but didn't expect to hear you jam on Amazing Grace at 7:44! 👍

[@AdamFreeman123]

Damn I want this guitar so bad - even though I've got the Jackson SL4X (with 3 Duncan Designed hot rails). Maybe it's because I'm a big Iron Maiden fan, maybe it's because Dave Murray is maybe my favourite guitarist, maybe it's because the sunburst looks badass... maybe all 3.

[@workerdrone4516]

man alive that sounds gorgeous

[@bigbermbikerchannel572]

The sound is strong, the sound is awesome, it's a guitar of Dave Murray

[@guitarristahobista]

I have one of these. How do I lower the strings since the bridge is not carved into the body wood?

[@joey_ruma]

Great video! I’m looking at adding this guitar to my collection. I have to say though, EVH was probably the original hot roddy guitarist to start modifying Strat style guitars with humbuckers and the Floyd Rose. 🤘

[@staticnat7342]

If I had the money, I'd get this Dave Murray Signature for playing blues!

I love playing blues with a floyd! If you do it right, you can do slide sounds! My Wolfgang and Dinky play blues reeeeeeealy good

[@brianheale5064]

Love this guitar phenomenal great playing too

[@FIFASEASONGAMING]

I have a custom shop Strat that’s looks almost identical to this without the Humbuckers and the Floyd Rose, but I’m about to buy this as I’m playing Dave’s part in a recently forming Maiden tribute band. Was hoping Fender would release a new signature version of this but in white and walnut neck that he’s recently had made for him but doesn’t look like they will.

[@booshting3520]

Love his new walnut neck strat. I'd buy that today if they'd do it

[@BlueAltaMultimedia]

Way to play all of that maiden for your Dave Murray demo. Just leave that for everyone else on the internet reviewing Dave’s guitar.

[@mathias6423]

Awesome guitar, I think I will save 300-400$/€ and go with the Player Strat polar white with black scratch plate with a HSS configuration and Floyd Rose, on that guitar you have like a recess slot under the bridge so that you can also pull out the trem arm a bit to also get the higher pitch which I like. I will go with the classic hot rodded setup and put a Dimarzio Super Distortion in the bridge and then go with a Fender noiseless "single" in the middle and then in the neck I am thinking about going with a Seymour Rail just like Dave has, awesome pickups. I am not sure what Floyd systems are in these player guitars but I am pretty sure it is the Floyd 1000 original which is what you really want and not that Floyd "special" imported system that breaks.

[@JohnnyGuitaristOfficial]

Its a pretty sweet strat!! Im loving the floyd rose setup.... just only wish it was routed out for it.

[@RockCoversMusic]

Nice sounding Strat!!

[@IbonIturrate]

I bought it. In the market from 2015 🤘

[@peterklein5861]

Anyone know how Dave Murray uses the middle pickup? I've thought about putting this set of pickups in my Mexican Standard but can't see myself using anything besides the two Hot Rails.

[@Nghilifa]

He uses it for cleans these days. He was never much of a "neck-pickup-for-cleans" type of guy.

[@DallasLangdon]

Dave either uses the middle position or 2nd position for cleans with the volume rolled back a little bit if in 2nd position

[@Flopster2632]

I had one of these years back, I wish they did a USA one like they do the Jackson USA Adrian Smith. I mean it’s an original floyd rose, USA Seymour Duncan’s, mine was 2 piece alder body which was made in the corona factory and it’s legit out together in Mexico… it’s basically USA so I never got why they didn’t just make it USA which is a total gear snob thing to say I know but yeah £899 I payed and an original Floyd rose and the pre wired Dave Murray signature are that pretty much alone without the rest of the guitar it’s a steal really

[@ChrisFranklyn]

His actual stage guitars are all custom shop. I'm sure they'd make you one :)

I briefly owned one of these a few years ago but I sold it because I wasn't getting along with the Floyd. Its a really nice guitar but changing strings and trying to tune it and lock it down to where it stayed in tune was exhausting. Dagan, I like that you used a Blackstar, which Dave has been known to use from time to time.

No. THE MOST hot-rodded guitar from the 1970s was the Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstrat assembled by Eddie himself (R.I.P.) who was not only The Guitar Legend but also a truly talented technician and experimenter. Period.

[@chancemiller9340]

The Dutch are famously excellent engineers.

[@Kylora2112]

Eddie built a Partscaster; Dave hot rodded a '57 Strat. Slightly different distinctions there :)

Cool but should be Black with a DiMarzio PAF and SuperDistortion. Saw them twice after buying Killers. Gave 'Scorps a tough time. Late '80s, Saxon ........ Stop by GC about 10 years ago. I point at a blk Strat, " "I don't know what they were thinking about that'' from a young worker there. Short history lesson :) I believe Dave won this Paul Kossoff Strat thru Melody Maker magazine. Maybe it was a sunburst first. Need to look for Back Street Crawler....
