Overview
For players who appreciate the mojo of the past matched to contemporary features, Fender 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, engineers 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(TM) 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.

Bought the 2 tone sunburst model. Well made all around. Made my usual tweaks, D'Addario 9-42 strings, 2 springs in the back of the tremolo & lowered the action. After that it was playing fantastic. Love this guitar so much I bought another of the same exact model as a backup. Best looking & playing Strats. I have had in a long time. Thanks to Fender & zZounds!
