Stratocaster in the style of the sixties with vintage-style single-coils, including deluxe gig bag
The Fender Limited Edition Vintera '60s Stratocaster PF Olympic White w/ Matching Headstock conveys the charm, the feel and of course the sound of the sixties. As a limited Factory Special Run, the iconic instrument comes in the coveted Olympic White Finish with matching lacquered headstock and beautiful Tortoise pickguard. While three Tim Shaw-designed Vintage-Style '60s single-coils showcase the authentic sound of Beat music and British Invasion, the mid-sixties-style neck profile conveys the feel of the Golden Era paragons. Last but not least, the Limited Edition Vintera '60s Stratocaster is completed by an authentic hardware setup with synchronized tremolo and vintage-style tuners.

Authentic playing feel
The Vintera '60s Strat naturally convinces with the authentic feel of the mid-sixties. The contour body design of the alder body promises a comfortable handling of the electric guitar. The slim "Mid '60s C" profile of the bolt-on maple neck also fits comfortably in the hand and, together with the round 7.25" Vintage radius and the narrow Vintage frets, promises the exactly reproduced feel of a Vintage Strat.
Vintage-style '60s single-coils with Alnico V magnets and staggered pole pieces provide crystal-clear vintage tones.
Flexible Vintage Sound
To achieve an especially flexible sound spectrum with a typical sixties vibe, the Limited Edition Vintera '60s Strat is equipped with three single coil pickups designed by Tim Shaw. Alnico V magnets and staggered pole pieces promise an even Output response on all six strings, and the pickups deliver a crystal-clear and articulate tone. The classic 5-way circuit features a master volume and tone control for the neck and middle pickups, as well as a separate tone control for the bridge pickup for precise tone adjustment.
The headstock of the Vintera '60s Strat carries vintage-style tuners for authentic looks and accurate tuning.
Classic Hardware Features
Of course, matching Vintage-StyleHardware completes Fender's Limited Edition Vintera '60s Strat Olympic White. A traditional 6-saddle synchronized tremolo serves as the bridge, creating shimmering pitch shifts to embellish melodies or chords. Six individually adjustable bent-steel tailpieces also help shape the sound and promise precise adjustment of intonation and string action. Vintage-style tun ers on the coveted headstock ensure accurate and robust tuning of the electric guitar.
I have ordered this splendid Vintera strat directly in Köln 1 month ago. I've been announced that they would receive the guitar within 3 days and then will ship it to my home address. 1 month later I finally receive the instrument with 2 (big) defects in the finish of the body. I assume that the instrument has not been verified correctly. Don't get me wrong - it's a really nice guitar. But if you want to order it, order it somewhere else.
