Overview

The Fender JV Modified Series combines classic aesthetics with modern playability to suit the needs of today's guitarist. Taking cues from the now highly sought-after "Japanese Vintage" reissues from the early '80s, JV Modified guitars are a refined take on a modern classic.

The '60s Stratocaster(R) has a resonant basswood body and is loaded with a set of three touch-sensitive vintage-style single-coil pickups for unmistakable Fender tone. A push-pull pot on Tone 2 adds the neck pickup for even more tonal possibilities. The Soft "V"-shaped maple neck has a silky-smooth satin finish and the 9.5" radius maple fingerboard and medium jumbo frets provide effortless playability.

For the player seeking classic Fender instruments with a twist, the JV Modified Series delivers a unique combination of vintage Fender style and modern playability.

"So different than my modern Strats"

Can not find a single flaw on this guitar. Amazing build quality, better than my 97 AM Standard. Plays itself, im just following along. My God it nails Hendrix! Every switch position does what's its sposed too, quack, chime, snarl, bite. The pickups sound really good and really vintage. Very happy I went with this guitar. I wanted a vintage style, vintage voiced Strat but I dig the modern touch of tone 2 for bridge pup and the push pull option. (If they don't come this way I do this to all my Strats anyways.)Can't put it down.. I Would buy this again no guestion.
