Looks, Sounds And Feel Both Vintage And Brand-New At The Same Time!
Classic looks, modern tone and feel! This new Vintage Hot Rod 62 Stratocaster guitar fuses the best of the old and the new in one smokin’ instrument.
Great classic features include vintage styling and a thin-skin nitrocellulose lacquer finish; modern features include three American Vintage Strat single-coil pickups (with reverse-wound/reverse-polarity middle pickup), a satin-backed neck with a flatter radius and medium-jumbo frets.
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 select alder body of the Vintage Hot Rod 62 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 wasnt afraid to think outside the box when it came to guitar designs - after all, he was an engineer, not a guitar player.
This Stratocaster is featured in a three color sunburst finish!
