The Fender® Vintage Hot Rod 57 Strat® with Candy Apple red finish bridges the gap between the Fender® Stratocasters® from the Custom Shop and production model Strats®.
Loaded with the most requested custom features built into Custom Shop models, the Stratocaster® Vintage Hot Rod 57 is equipped with Parallel SCN (Neck), SCN (Mid), and DiMarzio® Dual Blade Tone Zone™ (Bridge) pickup, a softer "V"-shaped neck, and an American Vintage Synchronized tremolo.
Fender® SCN pickups deliver souped-up fireball feel and time-honored Fender® tone heritage with a noise-free design that`ll let your guitar purr like a kitten or howl like a banshee.
With the special design combination of traditional magnets and new Samarian Cobalt magnetic material, the illustrious spank-and-clank Strat® sound roars forth from these pickups with eight-cylinder dynamic and magnetic response that actually dusted most of our coveted Kennedy-era test pickups.
The Tone Zone™ humbucking Strat® replacement pickup has built in the tremendous mid-range and bass response of the original Tone Zone®, and the same patented dual-resonance design produces great harmonics.
We also took into account the likelihood of installing The Strat® style Tone Zone™ in the classic slanted Strat® bridge position, by warming up the higher frequencies and brightening the low notes a little.
This is a vintage style Strat® customized the way you like it! Get a brand-new guitar with that magical broken-in feel, but set up to be a real world player’s instrument.
Classic vintage styling and a thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish mingle with modern pickups and a slimmed, softened "V"-style neck and medium jumbo frets on the Vintage Hot Rod `57 Strat®.
Nitrocellulose lacquer, which is a highly sought-after finish found on vintage guitars, lets the wood`s tonality shine through and project allowing it to breathe and reverberate, it will "break in" easily and enhance the overall tone of the instrument.
The result is a guitar with a vintage feel and modern tonal capabilities, giving it a broken-in vibe and adding functionality to a classic instrument. If you ever wanted the feeling you can only get from playing a great-sounding, broken-in guitar but want a new instrument, here it is!
The Vintage Hot Rod `57 Strat`s® one-piece maple neck has that comfortable broken-in feeling, thanks to its slimmed and softened "V" shape. A flatter fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets also contribute to the easy playability of this instrument, which also comes with a vintage tweed case.
The select alder body of the Fender® Vintage Hot Rod 57 Stratocaster® captures the sounds of Buddy Holly, Dick Dale, Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Billy Corgan, and John Mayer just to name a few!
Leo Fender® wasn`t afraid to "think outside the box" when it came to guitar designs - after all, he was an engineer, not a guitar player - and aren’t we all thankful.
This Stratocaster® is featured in a Candy Apple Red finish!
