Letenay says of the design, which features over 1000 pieces, "I used to play electric guitar when I was a teenager and I always dreamed ofowning a Fender Stratocaster - but I could never afford it. The competitionon LEGO Ideas gave me the chance to create it in LEGO bricks. The Stratocaster was my gateway into music and I love seeing my LEGO design with the stand. I am hoping that other guitar fans get as much joy out of building it as I have."
Federico Begher, VP of Global Marketing at the LEGO Group added, "The Fender Stratocaster guitar is iconic and has been at the heart of so many incredible songs over the years. We know many of our fans are passionate about music and we hope they enjoy the attention to detail in the not only guitar but also the accessories, such as the strap and the amp."
