View Full DescriptionA tone tailored for the '50s
Fender Custom Shop have crafted some of the finest electronics in order to recreate and deliver the vintage sound of a classic Stratocaster that was played back in the '50s. And they have nailed the sound perfectly thanks to the hand-wound '59 single-coil Strat pickups. This trio kicks out some of the fiercest tones, which are clean, crisp, and articulate. When combined, they offer a bright sound and tight low-end, the perfect characteristics for achieving a distinctive punch and bite.
Command your sound. The '59 Stratocaster features a range of controls that allow you to change the way you play. Its body features two control knobs for the pickups, tweak these and find the desired tone that you want your electronics to produce. Alongside this, you are also provided with a 5-way pickup switch, which offers a range of combinations from ranging from performing with a single pickup to blending two for the ultimate sound. Produce a tone you love in any situation.
Express yourself
Make your performance unique. This Stratocaster comes equipped with a 6-saddle vintage-style synchronised tremolo bridge that allows you to transform your tone with soaring melodies. Infuse your solos with an explosive power and whammy your notes for a distinctive and expressive sound or use the bridge to make your chords shimmer and shine with elegance. There’s a reason the famous synchronised tremolo has remained on the Stratocaster all this time.
Enhance your performance
Not only does this Stratocaster sound like it’s been around since the '50s, but it also has a vintage feel for the ultimate throwback performance. And Fender have ensured that the design suits the modern player, keeping up the legendary status of the Stratocaster. Its body is sculpted from alder and contoured elegantly. This way, you can roam the stage with ultimate freedom without feeling weighed down or restricted.
That’s not all, though. Its maple neck has been topped with a lacquer finish, offering a smooth base for fast transitions between frets. When crafting the neck, Custom Shop chose a classic 1959 C shaped profile. Thanks to this, it fits naturally in the palm of your hand and offers comfort during those long hours of practising, recording, and performing. Its addition of a rosewood fingerboard ensures every note feels luxurious under your fingers, making your experience all the more addictive. Once you pick up this model, you won’t ever want to put it down.
