Authentic Late 50s Tone and Feel
At the heart of this Stratocaster is a resonant ash body, known for its warm character, defined midrange, and bright, articulate highs. This classic tonewood delivers clarity and punch that perfectly complements the vintage voiced electronics.
A one piece maple neck with matching maple fingerboard reinforces the unmistakable snap and articulation that defined the golden era of Fender instruments.
Comfortable Late 50s D Shaped Neck
The authentic late 50s D shaped neck profile offers a substantial yet comfortable feel that sits naturally in the hand. Designed to reflect original period correct dimensions, it provides excellent support for chord work while remaining fluid and responsive for lead playing.
The 7.25 inch radius fingerboard delivers true vintage comfort, while vintage tall frets offer slightly increased height for smoother bends and expressive vibrato without sacrificing the classic feel.
Vintage Style 1958 Pickups
Three vintage style 1958 Stratocaster pickups faithfully recreate the bright, singing tones that helped define Fender’s reputation in the late 1950s. Expect sweet, chimey highs, a full and present midrange, and a rounded low end that responds beautifully to dynamics and picking nuance.
These pickups excel at everything from sparkling cleans to warm, driven blues and classic rock tones.
Classic Hardware and Vibrato System
A vintage style synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles provides smooth, expressive pitch control while maintaining proper intonation and tuning stability. Vintage style tuning machines complete the authentic look, offering improved gear ratios for more precise and reliable tuning.
Refined Vintage Aesthetics
Premium gold hardware sets this limited edition model apart, adding a refined visual touch while preserving the unmistakable Stratocaster silhouette. Every detail is designed to reflect the craftsmanship and character of a classic late 50s instrument.
