American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster
(Vintage Blonde)
Authentic Fender Tone & PlayabilityThe Fender® American Vintage II series is an incredibly accurate take on the revolutionary designs that shaped the course of musical history. Made using period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and carefully voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.
With its easy on the eye curves, shimmering tones and groundbreaking tremolo bridge, Fender’s new 1954 Stratocaster® was a phenomenon, different anything the world had ever seen. By 1957, the Stratocaster had soon earned its reputation as a mid-century masterpiece.
The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players that have a deep appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the product of legends.
