Fender Vintera III Early ’60s Stratocaster Electric Guitar Sonic Blue

Brand new to the Vintera line, we have the Fender Vintera III Early ’60s Stratocaster finished in Sonic Blue. The Vintera III Early ’60s Stratocaster offers players an assortment of beloved specs and colors from the early 1960s, with the added bonus modern craftsmanship and reliability.

The Early ’60s Stratocaster is constructed from a contoured double-cutaway alder body and is finished in Sonic Blue, a custom color Fender offered in 1960 that was inspired by 1956 Cadillacs. Alder, a classic tonewood choice from Fender, is well-known for its punch, beefy mids, and lively tone. Inspired by its vintage counterparts, the Early ’60s Strat features an Early ’60s “C” shaped maple neck this classic profile is comfortably rounded and starts off slim at the nut and gradually gets chunkier towards the 12th fret. The neck is attached to the body with the 4-bolt vintage-style neck plate. Topped with a 7.25-inch radius round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, the fingerboard is crowned with 21 vintage-tall fret wire, providing more height than vintage examples for easier bends and modern playability.

A set of Vintage-Style Early ’60s single-coil pickups are loaded into the 3-ply mint green scratch plate in the bridge, middle, and neck positions and are affixed to the body. These single-coil pickups deliver the brighter, articulate glassy tones Stratocaster’s of the early ’60s are known for. Tone can be further sculpted with the master volume, tone controls, and 5-way position blade switch for a variety of sounds.

High quality hardware supports the entire design, the six-point vintage-style tremolo system provides proper intonation and expressive pitch control. Vintage-style tuning machines with finer gear ratios ensure enhanced tuning stability. The Strat comes packed in a deluxe gig bag for easy transportation or protection while in storage.
