Fender Vintera 50s Stratocaster Modified MN, Daphne Blue

Full Description

Scorching '50s tone

Crafted for an era. The Vintera 50s Mod Stratocaster features especially designed electronics to deliver the famed vintage sound of a classic Fender guitar, with a little more dirt. A trio of hot '50s single coil pickups allow you to kick out those crisp, articulate leads with plenty of vintage flair. However, the higher output design of these pickups allows for more punch and bite within your sound, particularly in high gain situations. But what makes these pickups so specific for the '50s is their powerful tone response – gifting you with more than just great sound, but the heritage feel of Fender, too.

Take control of your sound. Not only does the Vintera 50s Mod Strat provide exceptional tone, but it excels in almost any genre. The Stratocaster is hailed for its immense versatility, and the Vintera series is certainly no exception. Equipped with a classic 5-way pickup selector, you can alter the overall voice of the guitar to suit your preferred style. This, combined with the traditional volume and tone pots, allows for simple and precise tone-shaping. So you can count on the Vintera Strat to produce the tone that you love, in any situation. Vintage. Versatile. It has to be Vintera.

The power of expression

Make every note your own. The Fender Vintera 50s Mod Strat comes loaded with a vintage-style synchronised tremolo bridge, for those soaring melodies. Let your solos scream with explosive power, and whammy any note for that distinctive, expressive sound. Not your thing? Use the bridge to your taste. Give your chords some shimmer and sparkle, and achieve a sound that oozes with sheer elegance. There’s a reason the famous synchronised tremolo has remained on the Stratocaster all this time…

Performance, enhanced

Not only does this Vintera Strat sound '50s, it feels '50s. And Fender have ensured that every detail reminds the player why the Stratocaster became so iconic. The lightweight alder body is sculpted into the familiar double-cutaway shape, allowing easy access to the upper frets. This way, you can roam the stage with ultimate freedom and perform high-end solos with simplicity.

That’s not all, though. A gloss-finished maple neck is built for fast transitions between frets, thanks to its ultra-smooth characteristics. Sculpted into a modern ‘C’ shape, the neck fits snug in the palm of your hand – meaning hours of comfortable playing on stage, at home, or even in the studio. The sleek maple fretboard surface ensures your fingers glide across the strings, making your playing experience all the more addictive. You won’t want to put it down.
