Nothing screams rock 'n' roll like a late '60s Stratocaster with a Sparkle finish-it's synonymous with fast playing and flashy showmanship. This ultra-sleek Fender Custom Shop 1969 Stratocaster pays tribute to those rockin' late '60s guitars, promising unrivaled performance and an eye-catching vintage allure from head to toe. Check it out today if you've been in the market for a top-notch Strat that's born for hard riffing!
In 1969, Fender introduced several modifications to the Stratocaster, including a slightly chunkier "U" shaped neck profile and classic "F" tuners. This Custom Shop model incorporates these period-correct specs, along with an immaculate Journeyman Relic finish package that makes it nearly indistinguishable from a genuine '69 Strat.
Powering this guitar is a trio of hand-wound '69 Strat pickups that deliver a gorgeous tone characterized by deep, decadent lows and bright, spanky highs. The middle pickup is reverse-wound/reverse-polarity for hum-canceling in the middle position, allowing noiseless operation when needed.
Decked out with a genuine bone nut, narrow-tall frets, and a vintage Strat bridge, the Fender Custom Shop 1969 Stratocaster is perfect for musicians seeking a premium old-school guitar with an attention-grabbing aesthetic. Contact us today if you're ready to add this incredible Fender guitar to your arsenal!
