The Fender Limited Edition American Vintage II '61 Stratocaster brings back one of the most iconic designs in Fender’s history with remarkable accuracy and refinement. Built in the USA, this model is part of the American Vintage II series — crafted to capture the feel, tone, and style of a true 1961 Stratocaster. Featuring a resonant alder body finished in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, this instrument delivers the unmistakable Strat voice: bright, articulate, and endlessly versatile.
Its roasted 3A flame maple neck with a comfortable “C” profile feels authentically vintage while providing exceptional stability. Under the hood, three Custom Shop Fat ‘60s single-coil pickups capture the bell-like chime and snappy response of early-’60s Fenders, offering everything from glassy cleans to searing blues tones.
Every detail of this Strat is vintage-accurate, from the Pure Vintage synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles to the single-line “Fender Deluxe” tuners and 3-ply mint green pickguard. Whether you’re a collector, performer, or simply a fan of vintage-inspired instruments, the American Vintage II '61 Stratocaster delivers an authentic playing experience with modern reliability. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this guitar comes with a hardshell case for convenient transport and safe storage.
