What we say:

At A Glance:

The Fender Vintera III Early '60s Stratocaster Rosewood Fingerboard Black brings together the best of vintage and modern Fender! If you've been searching for a classic style Fender with real vintage specs this might just be it. 60's specs all around from the neck, to the pickups and even the colour. As if a 60's Strat jumped right off the production line to the modern day. While this may be spec'd exactly like a 60's Strat though, the quality is exactly what you expect from a modern Fender. A classic alder body, a maple neck with a laminated rosewood fingerboard, and fantastic playability to go along with the classic tones. If vintage is your style, this is your guitar!

Features We Love:

Early 60's Pickups

There have been many eras of Strat pickups throughout the years each with their own dedicated following of fans. The early 60's pickups in particular capture their own sound and Fender have carefully crafted a set of single coils to give you the sound that has graced so many classic songs in our time. The early 60's Strat pickups are noted for their bright, glassy tone that many associate with the Golden Era of Fender guitars.

Early 60's Neck Shape

Throughout the history of the Strat it has undergone many changes and in the early days while it was already an icon, one could say it was still finding its footing. While earlier guitars tended to have larger D shaped necks, the early 60's neck shape settles in to that familiar C shape that has stayed with the Strat to this day. Comfortably carved with a slim width at the nut and a slightly thicker feel as you progress up to the higher frets. This vintage style neck is where the Strat started to really come in to it's own and is a great choice for those who like a vintage style neck without the chunkier D style shapes.

Vintage Spec, Modern Quality

When it comes to buying guitars the quality has never been better which means buying a vintage style guitar has never felt better! The early 60's Fenders are the dream for many players and Fender have distilled many of the aspects which make these guitars so revered down in to this series. Combined with their fantastic and renowned quality from their Mexico factory what you end up with is a guitar that has the look, feel, and sound of an iconic 60's dream guitar with all the quality modern Fender are known for.
