Playing a Fender Vintera Road Worn ‘50s Stratocaster is like hanging out with an old friend. It’s instantly familiar. This solidbody electric guitar’s relic’d alder body gives it the look and feel of a broken-in 1950s original, while its vintage-style single-coil pickups offer original-era tone with a bit more output — a must-have for modern applications. You’ll love the feel of this Strat’s Thick Soft V-shaped neck, while its 7.25-inch-radius fingerboard offers fleet-fingered playability. The Vintera Road Worn ‘50s Strat includes 5-way switching for added sonic flexibility, an attention-grabbing 3-ply mint green pickguard, and a rock-solid vintage-style 6-point synchronized tremolo and tuning machines.
Relic’d alder body offers original-era feel and aesthetics
The Vintera Road Worn ‘50s Stratocaster features a balanced-sounding alder body — a mainstay on Fender bodies with a distinctive tone that’s at the center of some of rock ‘n’ roll’s most enduring classics. A relic’d nitrocellulose lacquer finish gives this solidbody electric guitar the look and feel of a well-loved 1950s original. A 3-ply mint green pickguard and vintage-style 6-point synchronized tremolo and tuning machines put the perfect finishing touches on this Strat, supplying you with original-era aesthetics, plus rock-solid performance and tuning stability.
Vintage-style single-coil pickups deliver hot-wound ‘50s Strat tone
If you appreciate classic Strat tone, you’ll love the Fender Vintera Road Worn ‘50s Stratocaster. Its hot-wound single-coil pickups are dead ringers for 1950s-era pups, but — as we quickly discovered — they have enough output to spank the front end of a modern amplifier. These pickups boast enamel-coated wire and flat-top Alnico V magnets, achieving a glassy, bell-like sound with boatloads of clarity. What’s more, you get a 5-way switch that gives you more tonal options than a traditional 3-way switch.
Thick Soft V-shaped neck ensures easy playability
The Vintera Road Worn ‘50s Stratocaster has a Thick Soft V-shaped neck profile that feels incredible in your hand. This Strat’s take on the “V” profile is softer and more similar to a U-profile neck. Its 7.25-inch-radius fingerboard is complete with 21 vintage-tall frets that feel incredible to play. This neck secures to the guitar’s alder body with a traditional 4-bolt plate and includes a synthetic bone nut.
