Fender American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster®, Maple Fingerboard – Sea Foam Green

Weight; 3.508 kilo

The Fender® American Vintage II series presents a
remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary
designs that altered the course of musical history.
Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and
hardware, premium finishes and meticulously
voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument
captures the essence of authentic Fender
craftsmanship and tone.

With its alluring curves, sparkling sounds and
groundbreaking tremolo bridge, Fender’s new 1954
Stratocaster® was a phenomenon, unlike anything
the world had ever seen. By 1957, the Stratocaster
had crystallized into a mid-century masterpiece.
Featuring a trio of Pure Vintage ’57 Stratocaster
pickups, sweeping body contours and a supremely
comfortable “V”-shape neck with a 7.25” radius
maple fingerboard, the American Vintage II 1957
Stratocaster reproduces the quintessential tone
and feel of the original. Other appointments include
a vintage-accurate synchronized tremolo with cold
rolled steel block and bent steel saddles, single-line
“Fender Deluxe” tuners and a single-ply pickguard.
Offered in three stunning nitrocellulose lacquer
finishes – 2-Color Sunburst and Sea Foam Green
over alder and Vintage Blonde over ash – the
American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster celebrates a
true icon of Fender instrument design.

The instruments in the American Vintage II series
are direct descendants of the original Fenders:
designed for players with a fine appreciation for
vintage Fender tone and feel and built with
unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These
are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender
American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.
