Step back in time to the golden era of electric guitar innovation with the Fender® American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster®, a meticulously crafted homage to the instrument that revolutionised music history. This remarkable series captures the authentic essence of Fender’s groundbreaking designs through period–accurate construction, featuring original–spec bodies, necks, and hardware alongside premium finishes and carefully voiced, year–specific pickups that define genuine Fender craftsmanship.
The 1957 Stratocaster represents the crystallisation of Fender’s mid–century masterpiece, building upon the phenomenon that was the original 1954 model with its alluring curves, sparkling tones, and revolutionary tremolo bridge. This American Vintage II recreation features a trio of Pure Vintage ‘57 Stratocaster pickups paired with the supremely comfortable “V”–shaped neck and 7.25” radius maple fingerboard that made the original so distinctive.
Authentic vintage appointments include the period–correct synchronized tremolo system with cold rolled steel block and bent steel saddles, single–line “Fender Deluxe” tuners, and classic single–ply pickguard. Available in three stunning nitrocellulose lacquer finishes—2–Colour Sunburst and Sea Foam Green over alder, plus Vintage Blonde over ash—each instrument celebrates the iconic design that defined an era.
Built for discerning players who appreciate vintage Fender tone and feel, the American Vintage II series represents Fender electrics in their purest form. These direct descendants of the original Fenders maintain unmatched quality in every detail, proving that some legends never fade—they simply get refined to perfection.
