The second electric guitar designed by Leo Fender to come off the factory line, the Stratocaster debuted in 1954, helping bring the popularity of Fender musical instruments into full bloom by the late ‘50s. With six intonatable saddles and a smooth-bending whammy bar, the Stratocaster’s cleanly engineered tremolo was the instrument’s functional miracle, solidifying the Fender’s indelible influence on the future of electric guitar design.
