2-PIECE ASH BODY WITH GLOSS NITROCELLULOSE LACQUER FINISH Ash is a warm-toned wood with clear, bright highs, defined midrange and a beautiful grain pattern. Nitrocellulose lacquer, as used on ‘50s and ‘60’s Fender instruments, is a premium finish that reveals the instrument’s true tonal character and provides authentic vintage aesthetics. 70TH ANNIVERSARY 1954 SINGLE-COIL STRAT® PICKUPS Specially voiced to reproduce the authentic sound of a vintage 1954 Stratocaster, the 70th Anniversary 1954 Single-Coil Strat® pickups are full of the woody warmth and bell-like, crystalline tone that made Fender instruments famous. 1954 “C”-SHAPE NECK Replicating the shape and thickness of a 1954 Strat, this authentic neck profile from Fender’s past is even and robust with smooth and inviting playability from end to end. 7.25” RADIUS MAPLE FINGERBOARD The 7.25”-radius fingerboard and vintage frets provide the comfortable playing feel of a cherished fifties Stratocaster.
