One of the most
popular instruments in history, our Fender® Stratocaster guitar is certainly the
most imitated electric guitar ever. 1957 was a benchmark year for the
instrument, evolving from its early incarnations into an archetype - and the
high point of the era of the maple neck Strat® guitar. Original detailing
includes our unique ‘57/’62 pickups three-way switching (five-way switch kit
included), beveled pickup magnets, ashtray bridge cover, and single-ply
pickguard.
