Coated in a 3 Tone Sunburst finish, adorned with nickel/chrome hardware, and fit with a trio of '59 Stratocaster pickups, this Fender guitar has a gorgeous aesthetic and a phenomenal tone that'll impress even the pickiest musicians.
Starting with a 2-piece select alder body, this Strat projects that iconic Fender tone with pronounced upper mids, excellent sustain, and a sharp attack. Guitarists will love riffing on its plain grain maple neck, courtesy of its comfortable 1959 D profile and buttery-smooth AAA rosewood fingerboard.

These single-coils deliver glassy highs and warm, rounded lows, allowing them to nail a wide range of classic tones. Whether you're performing rapid-fire funk riffs or blistering rock solos, these pickups have an outstanding sound with tons of depth and dimension.
