OBEY GRAPHIC STRATOCASTER DISSENT

Her er lidt klip om Shepard Fairy og et af hans guitar designs:

Frank Shepard Fairey (born Feb 15, 1970) is an American contemporary graphic designer and illustrator who emerged from the skateboarding scene. He first became known for his “Andre the Giant Has a Posse” (OBEY) campaign, before becoming even more widely known for his Barack Obama “Hope” poster. The Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston calls him one of today’s best known and most influential street artists.

Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Shepard Fairey Relic Telecaster
In 2005, Fender Custom Shop’s Master Builder Todd Krause teamed up with underground artist Shepard Fairey to create 25 completely unique works of art built to the specifications of the iconic ’50s era Stratocaster & Telecaster.
The edition was 13 pieces- 6 Strats and 7 Teles- Each featuring unique artwork, hand-finished by Shepard Fairey. No two pieces were exactly alike and this one certainly has some of Shepard Fairey's most iconic designs including the Electric Warrior face (Hendrix-looking afro guy which I believe is actually a rendition or Marc Bolan), as well as numerous "Obey", "Andre The Giant" and other classic stencils. Hand-signed on the back Shepard Fairey '05. 

Obey Graphic Stratocaster® HSS Dissent   -  Squier 2006
The OBEY Graphic Series from Squier combines electric guitars with distinctive art and killer vibe to form truly inspirational “freedom of expression” instruments. Features include unique graphic art designs by renowned artist Shepard Fairey, Duncan Designed™ humbucking pickups and special “RusticAndWorn” hardware. Squier’s OBEY Graphic Stratocaster HSS Dissent puts an awesomely eyecatching spin on a classic Fender instrument, with a distinctive Shepard Fairey design theme.

Min Obey Strat er ikke brugt meget. F.eks. er båndene næsten ikke slidte. De to singlecoil pickups er med Alnicomagneter i stil med USA-Fenders pickupper. Ofte sidder der ellers de billigere keramiske pickupper på Squiers guitarer. Det større hoved på guitaren er samme design som Fender benyttede fra december 1965 til engang i 1981. Man gjorde det for at få plads til en større logo.

De oprindelige Fender Shephard Fairy guitarer udbydes til priser over 50.000 kr. Squiers Obey Strater blev ikke fremstillet særligt længe, så de koster lidt mere end almindelige Squier instrumenter, men priserne er ikke helt ude i hampen.
