General

Anyone taking a quick glance at this Japanese Fender Classic '60s Strat in 3-Color Sunburst is likely to think of Stevie Ray Vaughan. With its black pickguard, white knobs and pickup covers, and gold-plated hardware, this model screams Texas Blues! It has three vintage-style single-coil Strat pickups fitted onto an alder body that deliver the unmistakable iconic sound that Stratocasters are known for. Not only that, this '60s Strat comes at a much more afforable price than you'd pay for an SRV Signature model.

Classic '60s Strat

While the right look and sound are important, ideally, you want a guitar with a great feel too. That's why Fender Japan has combined the vintage specifications of this model with a number of modern features. As such, the fretboard has a rounded 7.25-inch radius that makes it easier to play chords lower down the neck. For improved resonance, the synthetic bone string nut has a width of 42 mm. Finally, Gotoh machine heads have been fitted for optimal tuning stability.

Fender Japan guitars

Japanese Fenders are high-end instruments that were originally exclusive to the Japanese market. These guitars are highly desirable thanks to the combination of vintage design, modern innovation and a high-quality finish. They offer the same build quality as the professional Fender American Standard models but for a more reasonable price. So if you're looking for an affordable Fender with vintage specs and a remarkable look, order yours today!
