A Strat built to dish out metal riffs and searing leads.
Five decades of Iron Maiden have forged a legacy unlike anything else in metal, and few players embody that fire onstage like Janick Gers. His whirlwind showmanship, dramatic spins and fluid, melodic phrasing helped define the band’s three-guitar attack from the moment he joined in 1990. The 50th Anniversary Iron Maiden Janick Gers Stratocaster honors that legacy with a classic Black finish, a slab rosewood fingerboard and a hot-rodded HSH pickup set built for roar, clarity and stage-ready control. Blending vintage Fender feel with modern aggression, it captures the energy, power and personality Janick brings to Iron Maiden’s music every night—whether you’re channeling Maiden harmonies, precision rhythm work or the expressive bends that punctuate Janick’s most iconic moments.
Vintage Strat Feel With a Fast, Expressive Neck
The Janick Gers Stratocaster delivers the immediate comfort of a vintage Fender neck, featuring a gloss-finished maple profile, 7.25" radius slab rosewood fingerboard and 21 vintage tall frets for classic touch and modern precision. The 25.5" scale and synthetic bone nut preserve the familiar tension and snap Strat players expect, while white dot markers guide quick transitions across the board in both rhythm and lead work. A vintage-style truss rod and four-bolt heel keep things stable under aggressive vibrato or high-energy stage performance—mirroring the durability Janick relies on night after night.
Seymour Duncan JB Jr. Pickups Drive Iron Maiden Power
To match Janick’s dynamic playing style, this Stratocaster is loaded with Seymour Duncan JB Jr. pickups in the neck and bridge positions—compact humbuckers designed to deliver the punch and harmonic heat of a full-sized JB. The ’60s-style single-coil in the middle adds classic Strat chime for cleaner passages or layered harmony parts. With a 5-way switch and dedicated tone controls, players can explore everything from muscular distortion and searing solos to articulate mid-gain textures or traditional Strat sparkle. It’s a flexible, high-energy configuration built for the demands of Maiden’s galloping rhythms and soaring dual-lead moments.
Vintage-Style Tremolo for Fluid Expression
A 6-saddle vintage-style synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles gives the Janick Gers Stratocaster the expressive freedom required for wide vibrato, subtle shimmer or aggressive dips—all with the responsiveness and tone transfer of classic Fender hardware. Paired with vintage-style tuners, the system delivers stability for heavy-stage use while retaining the slinky feel Stratocaster players expect. Whether used for dramatic dives or textural embellishments, it’s engineered to keep pace with Janick’s onstage panache.
50th Anniversary Details and Iconic Iron Maiden Aesthetic
This limited-edition Stratocaster celebrates Iron Maiden’s 50-year history with exclusive Anniversary touches, including a commemorative neck plate and Janick Gers’ signature on the back of the headstock. A 3-ply white pickguard, parchment knobs and a gloss polyester Black finish complete the look with classic Fender style. Nickel/chrome hardware reinforces long-term durability, while the included deluxe gig bag protects the instrument on the road—whether you’re touring, rehearsing or paying tribute to Maiden’s five-decade legacy at home.
