If you’ve been searching for the sound, style, and feel that shaped a generation of guitar heroes, the Fender American Vintage II 1965 Stratocaster delivers a faithful recreation of a pivotal era in music history. Dressed in a stunning Shoreline Gold finish, this model captures the look and tone of a classic Strat in its transition year, 1965. The period-correct “C”-shaped maple neck with a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard offers vintage playing comfort, while a trio of Pure Vintage ’65 gray-bottom single-coil pickups delivers bell-like clarity and punch with every note. Additional vintage-spec details like the 11-hole pickguard, vintage-style tuners, and synchronized tremolo ensure this Stratocaster sounds and feels like a true original. A deluxe hardshell case is included, making this timeless instrument tour-and-studio-ready. Available now at Haggerty’s Music in Rapid City, SD.
