VINTAGE STYLE FOR THE MODERN ERA

For players who appreciate the mojo of the past matched to contemporary features, we created the Vintera® '50s Stratocaster® Modified. Blending classic looks with a modern neck profile and fingerboard radius, hotter pickups and updated electronics, this guitar packs a surprising amount of power under the hood.

For modern Fender® tone we re-voiced the trio of single-coil Stratocaster pickups, kicking things up a bit by increasing the output. Crisp and articulate, they have the power you need for any style of music. The "Modern C"-shaped neck has a 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 medium-jumbo frets, for modern playing feel. A contemporary, two-point synchronized tremolo with vintage-style bent-steel saddles offers rock-solid performance and tuning stability. The S-1™ switch adds the neck pickup in positions 1 and 2, unlocking even more tonal variety. Other features include vintage-style locking tuning machines, vintage-style strap buttons and chrome hardware. Includes a deluxe gig bag.

The Vintera Series

'50s Stratocaster

ALDER BODY

A classic Fender tone wood, alder’s sound is balanced with equal doses of lows, mids and highs.

“MODERN C” NECK PROFILE

The “Modern C”-shaped profile is designed for comfort and performance, while the smooth satin back finish makes it play even faster.

HOT ‘50s STRAT® PICKUPS

We redesigned this guitar’s pickups. They’re packed with the bell-like, highly articulate tone that made Fender famous—only hotter.

MODERN FINGERBOARD

Comfortable for chording and single-note playing alike, the 9.5”-radius fingerboard offers modern feel thanks to its medium-jumbo frets, while also making wide bends easier in the upper registers.

TWO-POINT SYNCHRONIZED TREMOLO

An updated design, this two-point tremolo offers proper intonation, full adjustability and easy access to cool vibrato sounds.

S-1 SWITCH

The S-1 switch adds the neck pickup to positions one and two, accessing previously unavailable tones, or the power of all three pickups cranking simultaneously.
