Bruno Mars has teamed up with Fender to release his own guitar brimming with 24K Magic.

On Tuesday (07/11), Fender announced its collaboration with the 'Locked Out of Heaven' singer, revealing a gorgeous limited edition Stratocaster in Mars Mocha Heirloom. Crafted from resonant ash with sculpted American Ultra body contours, Mars's signature 6-string is a thing of beauty and elegance that delivers maximum resonance and pure tone.

With its 9.5"-12" compound-radius maple fingerboard, silky stainless-steel frets, and custom Bruno Mars Stratocaster pickups, players will feel the sparkle emitting from the guitar with every strum of its strings.

"I don’t think of myself as a guitar player. I’m more of a frustrated songwriter," Mars shares in a statement. "Every song is like a puzzle you have to solve, and a good guitar can bring something out of you that can help take you to the finish line. That’s what I wanted from this guitar. It was also important to have a workhorse that I could depend on for performing live and writing in the studio, whether it be rhythm or lead."

Justin Norvell, EVP of Product at FMIC adds, "We wanted to fashion a guitar that shows Fender’s respect for the artists marking today’s musical hall of fame, as well as displays Bruno Mars’s supernova qualities. Bruno has been a tried and true Fender player since the early days of his career and we’re thrilled to include his signature among our roster. Between the all-new finish to the custom-voiced pickups, we’re confident this will be one of our largest signature launches to date."

The Limited Edition Bruno Mars Stratocaster is available for 2,999.99 USD here.
