Colombian musician Juanes has been awarded a signature Statocaster by Fender.
The instrument will feature a white satin design Juanes says is a tribute to his first-born daughter, Luna (moon).

The winner of multiple Grammys, Juanes released his latest album, "Vida Cotidiana" (Daily Life) this past spring.
The recognition marks the first such Fender honor for a Latin music artist.
