For players who appreciate the mojo of the past matched to contemporary features, we created the Vintera '60s Stratocaster Modified. Blending classic looks with a modern neck profile and fingerboard radius, hotter pickups and updated electronics, this guitar packs a surprising amount of power under the hood.
For modern Fender tone we re-voiced the trio of single-coil Stratocaster pickups, kicking things up a bit by increasing the output for more girth and gain. Thick-sounding, yet articulate, they have the power you need for any style of music. The 'Modern C'-shaped neck has a 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 medium-jumbo frets for classic playing feel. A contemporary, two-point synchronised tremolo offers rock-solid performance and tuning stability, while the S-1 switch adds the neck pickup in positions 1 and 2, unlocking even more tonal variety. Other features include vintage-style tuning machines and strap buttons, chrome hardware and four-bolt neck plate. Includes deluxe gig bag.
