And Fender decided to show it in the best of ways with this gorgeous new lefty American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster in 3-Color Sunburst with a slab rosewood fretboard, one of the most iconic Strat looks in guitar history, sported by legendary players such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Mayer and John Frusciante. The new American Vintage II series brings back the original "American Vintage Reissue (AVRI)" of old with improved upon pickup design, more accurate neck shapes, and other period-correct specs. A lot of us here at the shop grew up lusting after those guitars and we're glad to finally get these into our hands years later. The '61 Pure Vintage pickups sound simply incredible and exactly as a classic Strat should. The tubbiness of the neck pickup and legendary position 4 quack are the highlights, but all 5 positions are amazing. The early '60s neck shape is simply comfortable feeling - basically every Strat-style "C" profile ever released over the decades was based on some variation of this profile, and for good reason. If you're a left-handed player and you could only add one Fender Stratocaster to add to your collection, accept no substitutes. Alder body, beautiful rosewood, 1960s-accurate looks, feel, and tone... this is the one. Details During the late ‘50s and early ‘60s, the popularity of Fender musical instruments flourished, and although the Fender assortment had expanded to include many great new instruments, the Stratocaster® reigned supreme. By 1961, the Stratocaster had taken on a more refined aesthetic, with a 3-Color Sunburst reformulated with a more vibrant red and bolder black edge, topped with a 3-ply pickguard accenting the Strat’s signature curves. Featuring a premium alder body, a trio of Pure Vintage ‘61 Stratocaster pickups and a medium “C”-Shaped maple neck mated with a 7.25” radius slab rosewood fingerboard, the American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster reproduces the quintessential tone and feel of the original. Other appointments include a vintage-accurate synchronized tremolo with cold rolled steel block and bent steel saddles, single-line “Fender Deluxe” tuners and 3-ply pickguard.
