Fender American Professional II Stratocaster
Fender's reimagined American Pro II series brings over features from the popular American Ultra line, including a truly ergonomic neck heel. The American Pro II Strat features V-Mod II single coils, a 2-point tremolo, and a push-push tone pot that can add the neck pickup at the press of a button. For the Sienna Sunburst or Roasted Pine finishes, the body is a new tonewood from Fender, roasted pine, instead of alder. - 3
PRS SE Silver Sky
The SE Silver Sky keeps the signature details of the US-made original: the small bird inlays on the fretboard, the beveled lower horn, and the 635JM-style pickups. And with a slightly flatter fretboard, it's a bit easier to play, especially when soloing. It's just about the same guitar at less than half the price—like a premium Stratocaster, but built for everyone. - 4
Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s (2019 - Present)
Features a mahogany body and neck, maple top, rosewood fretboard, and Burstbucker 1/2 humbuckers. - 5
PRS Silver Sky John Mayer Signature
Paul Reed Smith and John Mayer collaborated on Silver Sky Signature, aiming to bring to market a modern, idealized version of a vintage single-coil guitar. Mayer and PRS were inspired by and tried to include their favorite elements from vintage instruments released in 1963 and 1964, like neck shape and radius. It also features a special inverted headstock to accommodate Mayer's playing style and keep consistent length of string behind the nut for better tuning consistency. The tuners are vintage-style and closed-back with PRS's locking design and it also features a trem arm and Gen III knife-edge screws. - 6
Fender American Professional II Telecaster

Fender Player Stratocaster Electric Guitar

Top it off with new finishes like Sage Green Metallic and Buttercream, and you've got a serious tone machine that looks (and sounds) like a Custom Shop creation. - 10

Fender American Standard Stratocaster 1986 - 2000
The first generation of Fender's famed American Standard Stratocaster was introduced in 1986, building upon the success of the company's vintage reissue guitars while offering some modern touches and a wealth of finish options. Upon first glance, these American Standard guitars might just look like any old Strat, but contemporary features like a flatter fingerboard radius, thinner neck profile and a refined, more contemporary tremolo system make these first-wave American Standard Stratocasters the first choice for a plethora of players over 30 years later. Available with both maple and rosewood fretboards, as well alder or ash bodies, these versatile instruments have held value and stood the test of time. - 13

Gibson Les Paul Custom "Norlin Era" Electric Guitar 1970 - 1985
While made during one of the company's most controversial eras when many players saw a sacrifice of quality for profit margins, the Gibson Les Paul Customs of the Norlin Era can be diamond-in-the-rough finds for players with a keen eye. In particular, if you're looking for iconic LP growl with the workhorse construction that made these guitars a legend in the first place, many guitarists and luthiers alike point to the late '70s/early '80s models as capstones of the era. - 18

The Fender Player Series replaced the brand's long-time Mexican Standard Series, evolving and building upon what was great about the instruments foundationally.

The Squier Classic Vibe Telecaster '50s puts the sound and look of the highly prized '52 "Blackguard" guitar into the realm of mere mortals.

Fender American Standard Stratocaster 2008 - 2016
The Stratocaster family tree has grown tall and wide over the years, but the Fender American Standard Strat carries on the original legacy of the model in its purest form. It is an axe that can do it all, the swiss-army-knife guitar, but still has enough signature tone in its glassy, bell-like attack to have a world unto itself. For anyone looking to have only one guitar, the Fender American Standard Stratocaster has to be part of the discussion. - 27
Gibson Les Paul Studio 1998 - 2011
The Gibson Les Paul Studio has been the accessible, stripped down version of the icon since 1983. With genuine Gibson USA humbuckers and tone controls, it provides much of the same tone as a Les Paul Standard without any extras like binding or flamed maple. Although flashier appointments have been options in later years (like diamond inlays, and gold hardware), this is meant to be a workhorse guitar. If Les Paul tone is all you're after, here's your weapon.- 1998 marked the first update to the Les Paul Studio since it was fully redesigned in 1990, with the most notable change being the replacement of most Ebony fretboards with Rosewood - except on the Alpine White and Classic White models.
- The Les Paul Studio features 490R/498T Humbuckers, and a Mahogany Body with Maple Top
- Available in a number of different finishes over this period, with Alpine White, Ebony, and Wine Red carrying through the entire 13-year run. Other finishes include Emerald, Pewter, Teal Blue Flip Flop, Fireburst, Classic White, Cherry Sunburst, and Silverburst.

Fender ST-62 Stratocaster Reissue MIJ
The first era of Fender Japan began in 1982, when domestic market Japanese Fenders started rolling out of factories. While Fender Japan is popularly known for some of their more extravagant aesthetics, the bulk of domestic Japanese production was focused on reissues of historic American Fender models. These reissue models were labeled by a two letter/two number model code for the model and reissue year, followed by a suffix that indicated the price in Yen, and any unique specifications the model had. While a given model might come in a variety of price points during a given model year, from entry level to the near Custom Shop quality of Fender Japan's ExTrad series, all the models would broadly follow the aesthetic and technical specifications of the original American models. Reissue models would follow this naming convention until 2015, when Fender Japan revamped their product line to more closely mirror the organizational structure of the Mexican and American made Fender lines. Models on this page represent the 1982 - 2015 era of Fender Japan production, and typically feature the old style Fender Japan serial number at the base of the neck, as opposed to the contemporary "JD-" serial number format found on the back of the headstock. The original model codes (and frequently the value suffix) can usually be found in the neck pocket of the body, and at the base of the neck where the mounting holes are. - 40
Gibson Les Paul Custom (2019 - Present)
The current production run of the Les Paul Custom maintains many of the same specs as the previous model run but switches from a Richlite fretboard back to an ebony one. - 50
Gibson SG Standard 1991 - 2012
Over the years, Gibson has offered many iterations of the SG, but none has stuck around quite like the Gibson SG Standard. After its introduction as a replacement to the Les Paul in 1961, the SG's sharp, striking double-cut, beveled edges, and solid mahogany body, have all placed the SG squarely in the realm of legendary solidbody guitars. Though it was called the Les Paul after its initial production, the moniker was dropped in preference to SG. The SG Standard remains one of Gibson's most popular guitars and one of the brand's top-selling models since its release used by by players like Tony Iommi, Jeff Tweedy, and Angus Young. The Gibson SG Standard has seen many evolutions, existing and enduring through different additions and subtractions, but still remains one of the most iconic Gibson guitars. - 51
Gibson SG Special (2019 - Present)
Features a mahogany body and neck, bound rosewood fretboard, and dual soapbar P-90s - 55

Fender American Professional II Stratocaster HSS

In the Sienna Sunburst or Roasted Pine finishes, Fender makes use of a new tonewood: roasted pine. - 66
Fender Standard Stratocaster 2006 - 2017
The Fender Standard Stratocaster (made in Mexico) just might be the most popular guitar under $500. And for good reason. Build quality, tone and playability are so good with the Mexican Strat it requires a true connoisseur to tell it apart from its American brother. This model is also a favorite for modding, often by swapping out pickups and pots. Compare new and used Fender Standard Stratocasters here on Reverb. - 68
Fender American Professional Series Stratocaster
With a combination of classic tone and modern appointments, the Fender American Professional Series Stratocaster is the next step in one of the most iconic instrument ever produced. Handmade at their Corona plant, the Pro Series Strat brings in new electronics like Tim Shaw-designed V-Mod single coil pickups and a treble bleed circuit to retain your highs regardless of what level you're playing at. On the hardware end, the Pro Series also brings a hybrid C/U "Deep C" neck profile for lightning fast response and a two-point synchronized tremolo bridge. - 69
Fender American Standard Telecaster 1988 - 2000
The original run of Fender's American Standard Telecaster took the underlying structure and soul of the classic vintage Telecasters that guitar players had been employing for nearly 40 years around the world and simply added a few modern refinements, bringing an iconic instrument back into the forefront of all types of music with polished American craftsmanship. A more modern "C-shaped" neck profile and innovative tone control meet in the middle with undeniable Tele twang to make for a guitar that remains the true definition of a "workhorse" while holding value three decades later. Here you'll find American Standard Telecasters with alder or ash bodies, maple or rosewood fretboards, and a slew of finishes for the first 12 years of their being. - 72

- 73
Epiphone Les Paul Standard (1990 - 2019)
The original Les Paul model can claim a list of users that amounts to a who's who list of rock royalty - Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Peter Frampton, Slash, Jimmy Page, Billy Gibbons, and Joe Walsh among others - but remains out of reach financially for many players. The Epiphone Les Paul Standard gets one in your hands for a fraction of the price, with all the same mojo and feel. Choose the Plus model for a figured top or the Pro model for coil-tapping. Swap out the pups/electronics, and a blind tone test with a Gibson becomes a dangerous proposition... - 76
