Fender Custom Shop Ltd Ed Todd Krause Masterbuilt Michael Landau "Coma" Relic Stratocaster, Coma Red

For decades, Michael Landau's go-to guitar was his 1959 Stratocaster which became affectionately known as "Coma." This guitar has evolved along with his playing style, morphing from a Floyd Rose® equipped super Strat® with an on-board boost circuit to its current state as an HSS model with custom-voiced Noiseless™ Strat pickups and a custom Wide Range Humbucker. The beautifully worn red-stained alder body tells the tale of a well-loved guitar that's seen countless studios and stages across the world, marked with faded hand-drawn artwork and tattered stickers.

Custom Shop Masterbuilder Todd Krause and Michael partnered to build a limited run of this prized Stratocaster, capturing the wear from years of use and every scar from previous modifications - including Michael's hand-drawn "COMA" on the body in permanent marker just as he had done years ago.

The Michael Landau "Coma" Stratocaster is the latest instalment in Fender's Custom Shop Stories Collection, highlighting cult-favourite instruments that have been modified in the hands of legendary artists.
