Sadek Music presents the Dave Murray Loaded Pickguard, designed to capture the iconic rhythmic crunch and bubbly lead trills that have inspired guitarists worldwide for decades. Your Strat’s quest for fire is finally over! Fully loaded with Iron Maiden guitarist Dave Murray’s road-tested setup—a JB Jr. flanked by two Hot Rails—this Strat pickguard delivers a nearly endless array of classic metal and hard rock tones, all without any hum. The Hot Rails bridge provides a fat crunch with biting harmonics. The JB Jr. in the middle adds punch and clarity in positions 2, 3, and 4, while the Hot Rails neck nails Dave’s signature warm and expressive lead tone.
Easy to install, this loaded Stratocaster® pickguard will have you runnin’ free in no time. Hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA, it uses an 11-screw ‘USA’ pickguard pattern. All pickups feature small ceramic magnets, 4-conductor splittable lead wire, and are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free operation. Available in Pearloid, White, or Black pickguard options.
