Description
The Fender American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster takes everything great about the original and launches it into the modern era, making it an excellent choice for players seeking a premium Strat with plenty of old-school charm.
Featuring a solid alder body, this axe has a delightfully snappy sound with pronounced upper mids and plenty of attack. Its trio of Pure Vintage 1961 Stratocaster pickups and medium "C" shaped maple neck make it a joy to play, and both perfectly capture the quintessential tone and feel of the original. Players will also appreciate this guitar's vintage-accurate synchronized tremolo with cold rolled steel block and bent steel saddles, single-line "Fender Deluxe" tuners, and 3-ply pickguard, all of which offer a classic look and a top-notch feel.
Complete with a vintage-style brown hardshell case for safe transport, the American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster is sure to impress any old-school Fender fan.
