Fender has given the American Vintage II series a fresh lick of paint, adding seven new finish options to its most popular electric guitars.
This launch sees the 1973 Stratocaster offered in Olympic White with a rosewood fingerboard, while the 1961 Strat is arguably the pick of the litter with its Surf Green paint job and rosewood fingerboard.
It has all the appointments of the era; the slab rosewood fingerboard with the 7.25” radius, the synchronized tremolo with cold-rolled steel block and bent steel saddles, the clay dot inlays on the fingerboard.
MusicRadar was lucky enough to spend some time with the ’63 Tele in Vintage Blonde and it is quite something.
