The subject says it all: does anyone know if there is (or ever was) a 7 String Stratocaster? I am completely obsessed with 7 strings, taking after role models like Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. However, i prefer the playability and tonal variation of my good ol' Strat over Ibanez, Schecter, etc. If it is at all possible to obtain a 7 String Strat, well, that would be awesome.

No, I don't think so, unless you order it from the Fender Custom Shop, then yes. They only sell a 12 string electric. :( By the way, welcome! :wink:

If I remember correctly, my friend owns a black Squire 7 string strat. If you are looking for one, you can call a guy named Bruce Casteel, in Columbia, MD. He has a music studio, and has, or had them. He's in the book.

My friend sells 8-string strats - not Fenders, just his own "strat" style 8 stringers. But I don't have a pic.
