Open Box Fender American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster Electric Guitar Level 2 3-Color Sunburst 197881188511

The American Vintage II 1961 Stratocaster gives you an authentic recreation of the iconic electric guitar that shaped rock and roll. The alder body and gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish provide full, resonant tone, while a trio of vintage-accurate ’61 Strat pickups deliver the classic single-coil chime and bite that shaped generations of music. The maple neck sports a comfortable medium C profile and a 7.25"-radius rosewood fingerboard for a fast, familiar feel. A synchronized tremolo and vintage-style tuners provide an authentic 1961 Strat experience that captures the spirit of Fender's “golden age” of craftsmanship.

Alder Body Resonates With Vintage-Style Tone

The alder body, a Fender staple since the 1950s, provides a full tone that resonates with vintage-style warmth and clarity. Its lightweight, porous nature enhances note sustain and helps single-coil pickups achieve their characteristic chime. The gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish protects the alder while allowing it to breathe freely for the open, organic tone that defines the Stratocaster sound.

Pure Vintage ’61 Pickups Chime and Bite

A trio of Pure Vintage ’61 Stratocaster pickups delivers the authentic single-coil tone that fueled early rock and roll. The bridge pickup barks and bites with clarity and focus, the middle pickup chimes brightly and the neck pickup offers warm, rounded lows. Together, they span the sonic range that made the Stratocaster an icon.
