Overview

Vintage Fender style and tone, with a trio of ’57 single-coil Strat pickups.

The Fender American Vintage II 1957 Stratocaster electric guitar authentically captures the vibe of the iconic original, with Pure Vintage '57 single-coil Strat pickups for that cherished bell-like tone. Its lightweight ash body boasts sweeping contours and a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, while the bolt-on maple neck has a supremely comfortable V-shape. Take your playing back in time with vintage-accurate features like the synchronized tremolo bridge, providing shimmering pitch effects. The American Vintage II '57 Strat comes in a super-stylish vintage tweed case.

Pure Vintage '57 Pickups Give You Authentic Fender Twang

With a trio of Pure Vintage '57 single-coil Stratocasters, the American Vintage II '57 Strat delivers the sparkling clean tones and growling overdrive that made Fender a legend. The bridge pickup packs a punchy treble bite, while the neck pickup warms up with round, vocal midrange. Switch to the middle position to get that quacking, funky rhythm sound. Dial in just the right tone with the master volume and two tone controls. Whether you want to play blues, rock, country or anything in between, these pickups serve up classic Fender character.

Lightweight Ash Body Provides Resonant, Comfortable Feel

The American Vintage II '57 Strat has a lightweight ash body finished in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, providing vibrant resonance you can feel through the guitar. Its contoured edges fit smoothly against your body, while the deep double cutaways let you easily reach those high frets. The sleek gloss finish not only looks gorgeous under stage lights, but allows the wood to sing. Weighing in at just 7.6lb., you can play this Strat on stage for hours without wearing out your shoulder.

Maple Neck and Fingerboard Offer Ultra-Smooth Playability

With its supremely comfortable V-shaped profile, the American Vintage II '57 Strat's bolt-on maple neck makes playing a breeze. Your hand glides effortlessly up and down the vintage-style 7.25" radius fingerboard, while the 21 vintage tall frets provide fast, low-fret access. The bone nut enhances resonance and sustain. Whether you're ripping through a solo or strumming out chords, this vintage-accurate neck gives you the feel and playability that made the '57 Strat a legend among guitarists.

Vintage-Style Synchronized Tremolo Allows Expressive Effects

Just like the original, the American Vintage II '57 Strat features a synchronized tremolo bridge that lets you infuse your playing with expressive pitch effects. Use the whammy bar to add warbling vibrato or dive bomb from soaring high notes to rumbling lows. The six vintage-style tuning machines keep your guitar in tune even with heavy tremolo use. From psychedelic warbles to smooth Bigsby-style shimmers, this vintage-accurate tremolo opens up a world of tonal possibilities.

Vintage Tweed Case Keeps Your Strat Safe With Retro Style

The American Vintage II '57 Strat comes with a super-cool vintage-style tweed hardshell case, keeping your guitar protected in retro-inspired fashion. Its plush red interior cradles your Strat during transport and storage. Maintain the value of this investment by keeping it safe from dings and dust in the vintage tweed case.
