Wayne Kramer, guitarist of incendiary proto-punk group MC5, has joined the ranks of the great and good by unveiling a new signature Fender guitar - a replica of his famed stars and stripes Stratocaster.

The Wayne Kramer Signature Strat will feature a S-H-S pickup configuration, with a Seymour Duncan 59 humbucker in the middle position and 'vintage-style' Stratocaster singlecoils at the bridge and neck.

Also worth noting is the American Vintage hard-tail bridge, Schaller vintage-style 'F' tuners, the oversized 70s headstock and the neck plate, which is engraved with the slogan 'This Tool Kills Hate'.
