At Fender® we celebrate seven decades of timeless tone and unique style of the Stratocaster® with the special 70th Anniversary collection. Each 70th Anniversary Stratocaster model reproduces the legendary sounds that have made the Strat® an unparalleled icon in the world of guitar. These instruments are liked by both musicians looking for a vintage-type Strat, as well as modern guitarists who want a versatile guitar with which to play current music. The Stratocaster 70th Anniversary Collection is faithful to Fender® history. The American Vintage II 1954 Stratocaster is based on a legend, the first Strat in history. This 70th Anniversary model is constructed with a particularly resonant 2-piece ash body, finished in nitrocellulose lacquer. This guitar has a very special vintage charm. The one-piece maple neck, along with the 7.25" (184.15 mm) fingerboard radius and vintage frets, give players the smooth feel that countless guitarists have felt on Strat® guitars for decades. The 1954 Strat® 70th Anniversary single-coil pickups reproduce the authentic sounds of the guitars of the 50s, with an excellent combination of brightness and sound forcefulness. This Strat® is faithful to the era, as it equips a bridge with a block and steel saddles with synchronized tremolo system, "Pure Vintage" tuners or a single-ply pickguard, with pickup covers and controls like those on 1954 guitars. In the vintage-style tweed case, the Musicians will also find plenty of interesting accessories. This limited edition model captures the essence of the original Stratocaster® and is the perfect instrument for collectors and Fender® enthusiasts. The instruments in the 70th Anniversary Stratocaster collection are available in limited units, so we recommend that if you want one of these 70th Anniversary Stratocasters, you buy it as soon as possible. see more FEATURES 2-piece ash body Glossy finish with nitrocellulose lacquer 1954 Strat® 70th Anniversary single-coil pickups 1954 “C” shaped neck profile Pure Vintage bridge with steel saddles and synchronized tremolo system Pure Vintage "Fender Deluxe" closed tuners
