VINTAGE-STYLE HARDWARE From the bridge to the string tree and tuning machines, every piece of hardware is manufactured to look, sound and function just like it did on the originals. Unlike later iterations of the Stratocaster, this 1954 model features the period-correct round disc-style string tree, special pickup covers with softer top-corner radius, football shaped switch-tip, tallboy knobs with slim skirts and small numbering, and the backplate with circular string-holes. 70TH ANNIVERSARY STRATOCASTER CASE AND ACCESSORY KIT The included vintage-style tweed case is packed with a bevy of period case-candy to complete the package: a vintage-style bridge cover, polish cloth, vintage-style strap and cable, an engraved anniversary neck plate, and some lovely ephemera like a 1954 hang tag and Strat instruction sheets. We even include a 5-position switch to swap out the stock 3-position if you so desire.
