Highlights
ALDER BODY
A classic Fender tonewood known for resonance, punch and clarity, alder has a balanced and lively tone with beefy mids and a robust low-end.
MAPLE NECK WITH 7.25" RADIUS ROUND-LAMINATED ROSEWOOD FINGERBOARD AND VINTAGE TALL FRETS
The 7.25” radius fingerboard provides vintage comfort and feel, while vintage-tall frets provide slightly more height than vintage for big bends and wide vibrato.
EARLY '60S "C"-SHAPED NECK
This classic '60s shape is comfortably rounded and starts off slim at the nut, thickening slightly toward the 12th fret.
VINTAGE-STYLE EARLY-‘60S PICKUPS
These early '60s spec pickups capture the bright, articulate tone and glassy clarity that defined this golden era of Fender craftsmanship.
VINTAGE- STYLE SYNCHRONIZED TREMOLO WITH BENT STEEL SADDLES
One of our most innovative designs, this six-point tremolo offers proper intonation, full adjustability and easy access to classic vibrato sounds.
VINTAGE-STYLE TUNING MACHINES
These tuning machines offer the look and feel of vintage machines with a finer gear ratio and enhanced tuning stability.
