Stevie Ray Vaughan's blues playing style was strongly influenced by Albert King, but Stevie also had his own distinct sound which was partly based on using heavy thirteen-guage strings.
Vaughan's comeback was cut tragically short when, in the early morning of August 27, 1990, he died in a helicopter crash near East Troy, Wisconsin following a concert at the Alpine Valley Music Theater where earlier in the evening he appeared with Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, and Eric Clapton.

Stevie Ray Vaughan (October 3, 1954–August 27, 1990) was an American blues guitarist, known as one of the most influential electric blues musicians in history.
Vaughan is most notably featured on Bowie's album, "Let's Dance", in the songs "Let's Dance" and "China Girl." Vaughan's debut album was the critical smash Texas Flood (produced by John Hammond), and sold well in blues and rock crowds.
Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble's second album, Couldn't Stand the Weather (1984) was even more successful than Texas Flood, as was Soul to Soul (1985).

In 1983, Stevie Ray Vaughan’s tunes "Pride and Joy" and "Lenny" began trickling onto the airwaves and the blues and rock worlds did a simultaneous double take and a "What the hell was that?" unlike anything since Jimi Hendrix’s ascension in 1967.
A native Texan based in Austin, Vaughan and his brother Jimmie had honed their chops for years before Stevie was discovered by the Stones.
Vaughan never claimed to be inventing something new, and continually paid tribute to his influences - Albert King, Lonnie Mack, Buddy Guy, T-Bone Walker, Hendrix - whose licks he copped and whose "feel" he internalized.

 Fender Stevie Ray Vaughan Stratocaster | Sweetwater.com
Much like fellow Strat slinger, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray literally burst upon the music scene and blew everyone away with his fierce, passionate playing style, though he actually paid his dues for years in hundreds of gigs in dark, smoky clubs in and around Austin, Texas.
To deliver that signature SRV tone, this guitar comes with a matched set of Texas Special single coil pickups, so you can go from the classic Strat "spank" to a screaming, red hot lead sound with ease.
The Stevie Ray Vaughan Stratocaster comes with a one-piece maple neck that sports a special early '60s deep, thick oval shape and it's the only Strat in the Fender line to come standard with a pao ferro fingerboard.

While other companies and luthiers had produced electric guitars since the late 1920s, nearly all were either hollow-body guitars with pickups attached, or more specialized instruments such as Rickenbacker's solid-body Hawaiian lap steel guitars.
However, the sale is often now looked back upon unfavorably, due to the perception that CBS favored numbers and profit over quality; the culmination of this occurred in 1983, when the Stratocaster received a short-lived redesign without a second tone control and a bare-bones input jack.
Fender still manufactures its highest-quality models in the United States, but also has extensive manufacturing facilities in Japan, China, and Mexico for downmarket models, such that a new guitar with the name, 'Fender Stratocaster,' can be purchased for roughly the same dollar amount today as in 1954.

 Strat Collector News Desk: Seven Fender Stratocaster Models That Pay Tribute to Jimi Hendrix
It was the first Fender artist-related Stratocaster, or perhaps "artist inspired" would be more accurate since no connection to Hendrix by name or image appears anywhere on the guitar (the authorized and licensed Artist Series instruments didn't begin until the Clapton Signature model appeared in 1988).
Stevie walked back on stage with his back to the crowd and began to tweak his amp.
The Voodoo Stratocaster has a right-handed alder body, a one-piece maple neck with reverse headstock, 21 medium jumbo frets, vintage pickups with reversed staggered pole pieces and reverse angle bridge pickup, a right-handed vintage bridge, rosewood or maple fretboard, and vintage "F" tuners.
