Description

Fender American Original ’60s Stratocaster with Rosewood Fretboard 2018 – Olympic White with Case

This Fender American Original 60s Strat has been setup and plays well with low action. The guitar is overall very clean, but dose have some belt rash on the back and a finish ding on side of neck pocket. Please see photos for overall condition. Included is the original G&G case and hang tags. If interested please make us an offer!

A period of change, both for Fender and for pop culture as a whole, the 1960s saw the Strat mellow slightly as it grew up. The white pickguard was updated to mint green, and the fingerboard was switched from the original maple to rosewood, adding a smoother note to the Strat’s clear, articulate voice. The American Original ’60s Stratocaster keeps these refinements intact while adding modern feel and pickup switching to the iconic instrument that helped birth guitar rock as we know it.

The wax-potted Pure Vintage ’65 single-coil Stratocaster pickups are as period-correct as possible, from the enamel-coated coil wire to the cloth-covered output wires, fiber bobbins and alnico 5 magnets. The thick “’60s C” neck profile and the 9.5″-radius fingerboard enhances playability. Other authentic touches include vintage-tall frets, original-era body radii, vintage-style hardware-including a six-point synchronized tremolo bridge- vintage-style hardshell case and a lacquer finish that not only lets the wood “breathe” naturally with resonant tone, it also ages in a distinctively appealing way.

The American Original ’60s Stratocaster is the best way to experience the performance, style and tone that made Fender the choice of legends.
