Fender’s Jimi Hendrix Voodoo Stratocaster® recreates the sound made famous by the voodoo music master himself–Jimi Hendrix–for the righthanded player. The Voodoo Stratocaster has a right-handed alder body, a one-piece maple neck with reverse headstock, 21 medium jumbo frets, vintage pickups with reversed staggered pole pieces and reverse angle bridge pickup, a right-handed vintage bridge, rosewood or maple fretboard, and vintage “F” tuners. Comes factory equipped with genuine Fender strings for optimum tone and performance.

Guitar players universally agree that Hendrix achieved his signature sound inpart because he was a left-handed guitar player who played a right-handed Stratocaster strung left-handed. The reverse bridge pickup angled down towardsthe bass string produces a unique sound that differs from a standard Stratocaster bridge pickup.

The low strings are much brighter and more articulate and the high strings are warmer and fuller.When a right-handed guitar is strung lefthanded, the change in string tension and the reverse staggered pole pieces on the pickups have adirect effect on the tone, which is how Hendrix made his high strings scream and achieved pure, clear tones on his low strings.

Since it’s a challenge to play a guitar body that’s upside down with all the knobs and the tremolo in the way, Fender made it easy for the right-handed player to comfortably obtain the Hendrix sound. Everything on the Voodoo Strat is designed to give all the sonic benefits of playing an upside-down Strat like the original guitar that Hendrix used, only on a right-handed body.
