General

The Sixties was a time of change, not just in popular culture, but also for the Fender Stratocaster. This American Original '60s Strat is packed with authentic details from this influential period, combined with a few modern tweaks that raise playing comfort even further. The thick, C profile neck is finished with a rosewood fretboard and 21 tall frets for supple playing and warm sound. This Strat also comes complete with its own vintage-style case.

American Original ‘60s Stratocaster: Pure Fender Tone

The solid alder body is home to three Pure Vintage '65 Gray-Bottom Single-Coil Strat pickups that have been reproduced as authentically as possible to give this electric guitar its unmistakable '60s Fender sound. The body and the back of the neck have both been treated with a nitrocellulose lacquer that allows the wood to breathe and age naturally. This coating also enhances this instrument's outstanding resonance.
