More Info
A classic Fender® tonewood known for resonance, punch and clarity. Alder has a balanced and lively tone with beefy mids and a robust low-end. Each instrument is available in signature Fender colors and faded classic finishes that recreate the well-loved patina of vintage guitars. Based on Fender’s Pure Vintage designs, Coastline ’57 Stratocaster® pickups are slightly overwound to deliver enhanced Fender warmth, chime and punch. The Modern "C"-shaped neck delivers a comfortable playing experience with its smooth, ergonomic profile. The 9.5”-radius fingerboard with medium jumbo frets provides fast fretting and easy playability. One of our most innovative designs, this six-point tremolo offers proper intonation, full adjustability and easy access to cool vibrato sounds. Staggered ClassicGear™ tuners combine classic Fender® looks with modern precision. The uniquely engineered Greasebucket™ Tone System tames treble frequencies without sacrificing gain or adding unwanted bass, preserving your carefully crafted sound. Unlike traditional tone controls, this sophisticated circuit maintains clarity and definition even when rolled back.
