The Saint Laurent x Fender Stratocaster is a sleek, sophisticated take on the iconic musical instrument that's perfect for musicians and fashion-forward consumers alike to pick up.
The guitar features a double-cut alder body that gives it a distinct look that's all its own, while a series of high-end details like single-coil pickups with lipstick-style covers and a glossy black fretboard complete the look. The entire guitar is finished in a black urethane that's only deviated from with the Saint Laurent logo just below the bridge to further elevate the look.
The Saint Laurent x Fender Stratocaster comes with a custom strap and picks, and is limited to just 10 examples priced at $12,500 each. The guitars will only be available at the Saint Laurent Rive Droite Paris and Los Angeles locations.
