Fender's production version of the modified Stratocaster that Tom Morello has played for most of his career, sold as a signature model rather than a vintage reissue.
Watch
Why it matters
Signature Strats usually follow a vintage template; this one reproduces a mismatched, heavily altered player's instrument, which makes it an outlier in Fender's artist range. It appeals to followers of the Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave catalogue, and to players who want a signature model that is not a copy of a classic spec. Availability runs in and out, so stock levels move.
Note
The famous modified guitar of the Rage Against the Machine guitarist, finally official.
